Gentrification, which is the process of renovating or improving a neighborhood, can lead to an increase in property values and rent, making it difficult for low-income individuals to afford housing and potentially leading to homelessness. The other options are incorrect: A is false, as homelessness exists in both urban and rural areas; C is false, as deinstitutionalization actually led to an increase in homelessness as mentally ill individuals were released from institutions without proper support; D may provide healthcare but does not address the issue of homelessness as a whole.
