In this opinion column,  Eric "Protein" Moseley reflects on his first-hand experience arriving in Duluth while unhoused, contrasting the city's resources with the harsher conditions of larger cities. Moseley describes the cleanliness of the environment and the efficiency of services like CHUM, noting that the availability of lockers, beds, and hygiene kits made the experience feel "like a resort" compared to other metropolitan areas. This source is highly credible as a primary narrative of lived experience, providing a rare positive outlook on Duluth’s social safety net while simultaneously acknowledging the rising homelessness statistics in the region. It is an essential read for those studying homelessness advocacy and the impact of local community support systems on individual morale.
