Homelessness makes people more vulnerable to violence victimisation; but, the exact components that lead to victimisation and injuries remain unclear. Therefore, the following investigation examines the frequency and features of violent victimisation amongst homeless people by conducting interviews with 3 individuals enduring homelessness on Pomona island. Our findings show that all of the participants have had some sort of experience with violence, and that being homeless for a long time (more than 2 years) and also being older raised the likelihood of being attacked violently. Furthermore, as the duration of homelessness lengthened, the participants claimed it as their "home" and have marked their area with their possessions.

We conclude that some population groups of the homeless population are more vulnerable to victimisation and, as a result, need additional safety measures; we also explored the effects for health care and the lack of government recommendations.
