A common perception of the homeless is the old, disheveled man on the street begging for money. While this description may fit a small percentage of the homeless population, the vast majority of the homeless do not fit this description.
I am examining the perceptions/stereotypes of the homeless and the actual demographics of the homeless.

The way movies, television shows, and other media have portrayed the homeless in America from 1990 to the present has resulted in a largely incorrect public perception of the homeless population. (examine stereotype of the homeless created by the media versus reality)
