> I asked myself the same question when I saw exactly 1 homeless person in all of Tokyo

Homelessness in Tokyo looks different than homelessness in a major US city. Often enough, it means freeters sleeping overnight in manga cafés.

According to the article, living in an internet cafe can be as little as $420 per month. But where does someone who has no work that month get the $420? Does the government have a minimal support program?

lol that’s actually more expensive than a lot of small apartments in Tokyo.

That said there is no shortage of work in Tokyo. Far more work than the number of people available to do it.
