I’m not advocating for it, but I can see how relocation could reduce the misery. There is a lot of crime in SF, the access to recreational drugs is too easy, and the rents are too high.
In particular, for the homeless drug addicts, an Amish-like community in a deeply rural area could be much more healthy. A complete isolation from all recreational drugs alone could be a major factor, if done properly (including medical supervision). If I remember correctly, a large part (if not the majority) of the homeless in SF are drug addicts.
Drug addicts also commit disproportionately many crimes, so removing them from city centers could noticeably reduce crime (which is causing a lot of misery for the rest of the city population).
