Etymology

The word 'houseless' originated from the combination of 'house' and the suffix '-less', which indicates the absence or lack of something. It has been used in English since the late 18th century to describe individuals or families without a place to live. The term highlights the vulnerability and challenges faced by those who are without shelter or a permanent residence.
