Point-in-Time Count

After 20 years, Lane County officials say they’ll stop using the point-in-time count this year as a tool for gauging homelessness.

Each year, counties across Oregon conduct a Point In Time Count to try to get a sense of how many people are experiencing homelessness on a given night. The 2025 results for Lane County were released Thursday.

According to data from point-in-time counts and the Department of Veterans Affairs, 1,400 Oregon vets experience homelessness on any given night. And over half of them are unsheltered.

The homeless population in Lane County has continued to grow, according to an official Point-In-Time Count released this month.

During the last week of January, communities across the country conduct a count of their homeless population.
