The new face of homelessness in Australia | Four Corners
The lack of affordable and social housing in Australia has reached crisis point.
In towns and cities across the country, a growing number of people with low-paying jobs are struggling to find accommodation.
The problem is particularly acute in regional towns, where high rental prices combined with a lack of available houses means low-income workers have little hope of finding a home.
Four Corners investigates the reasons behind Australia’s homelessness crisis, meeting single working mums with no other option but to live in motels, cars, and even tents with their kids.
