Has anyone come across a good lot that would work for either?
I was thinking of making a community lot for this, kind of like the fire station (am I the only one who never plays that career cause its too broken?) but then I was thinking maybe make it a residential lot, so I could have "staff" there.
Now that I put more thought into it, maybe I should try and come up with some kind of challenge for myself related to running one of these type of places. Anyone else ever try something like this?

I haven't found a build like that, but I don't play homeless/runaway sims too often. Though if you do create a challenge such as you describe, share here. I'd love to try it, too!
For a homeless shelter I was thinking mabe base camp would work but then I thought it would mostly be tourists. Apartment lot type maybe, not too sure.

I think that would probably work best for starting off brand new sims. It certainly would feel more organic than having a sim spend a ton of time somewhere like the fire station. I may in fact use the lot I had the fire station on as part of this.
I think if I was going to do a story or challenge revolving around a shelter I would probably be better off using a large residential lot though I imagine?

The second is the shelter itself. Its located close by, but is a seperate building. It contains the actual beds, and maybe showers/kitchen equipment? I've never been inside. Its an incredibly small building though so I imagine everything is cramped.
There's also men and women's transitional housing, but that's a bit different than homelessness.
