When I write about the migrants from Venezuela, it doesn’t take long for the mean comments to pile up. But the migrants aren’t going anywhere.

The city is sheltering more than 3,000 migrants in non-city buildings, such as hotels and motels, according to the dashboard. Thirty-five are sheltered in city buildings. And growing numbers of migrants are sleeping on the streets, according to city officials.
