Unhoused vs. homeless. Why the somewhat recent change and what’s the difference?

Question

In a lot of recent conversations & podcasts, I’ve heard in uptick in the use of unhoused to replace the term homeless. If unhoused is a more politically correct term, what makes it so?

Home is where your heart is. The term “homeless” assumes that these unhoused individuals have a strict definition of “home”, which is far to presumptious.
