Limitations and reproducibility

Reproducible from public sources: Each total is printed in the HUD Housing Inventory Count report for CoC WA-500 (summary table: family beds plus adult-only beds for Permanent Supportive Housing). The sober-labeled row is the project 'Kerner Scott Clean and Sober' in each year's project list; we searched every project name for clean, sober, recovery, abstinence and treatment. The Oxford House count is the sum of King County houses and beds in the Oxford House vacancy directory on November 10, 2026.

• The Housing Inventory Count has no field for whether a project requires sobriety or treatment. Projects are counted as sober-labeled only if their name says so; a sober project with an ordinary name would be missed.
• At least one sober supportive housing building, Catholic Community Services' Traugott Terrace (50 units, abstinence required), does not appear in the 2025 count under that name, so the count may miss some sober housing.
• The count covers housing dedicated to people who were homeless. Some county Health Through Housing hotel sites are listed as emergency shelter rather than supportive housing.
• The comparison table mixes dates: supportive housing beds are from January 2025, Oxford House beds from November 2026.
• Oxford Houses are not supportive housing: they are shared homes run by residents, who pay rent, and most stays are shorter.
