These are the faces of the homeless who died in Sacramento County in 2022. Did you know them?
At least 191 homeless men and women died in 2022 in Sacramento County, a Sacramento Bee analysis found. That number is a few deaths fewer than a Bee analysis of 2021 deaths published a year ago, but it could rise as more information becomes available from the Sacramento County Coroner’s Office

Use the map to see who died and where. In cases where the death location was unknown, the location where they lived was used. Click the dot to learn their name, age, race/ethnicity, and a little bit about their personalities. The same information, along with the photographs The Bee was able to gather, is available under the map as a list — which can be searched and sorted.
