Chicago's migrant shelter population has dropped by more than half since last winter and after the city began implementing a 60-day stay policy in the spring, according to a Chicago Sun Times analysis.
As of Friday, some 6,300 asylum-seekers were temporarily housed in 17 shelters run by the city and state. This compares to the peak of the migrant influx last winter, when there were about 15,000, the outlet said.
