Yes, ten times is a slight exaggeration...

However, (pick your source) Oregons homeless at around 15,000 is three times the states with even more population than us...say Louisiana, Kentucky, Alabama...using the same source at about 5,000 homeless each...

So yes, ten times, is an exaggeration...but more homeless than other states our size, is not...and one could argue 2 or 3 times more homeless than other states our size is not an exaggeration...again, pick your source...as the first five sources I looked at, were not that far off from each other...
