I live in metro Houston. So yes
Prohibition doesn’t stop this. Portugal has less drug addicts than we do. You aren’t solving the problem, you’re actually making it worse!

Maybe 5 years ago Seattleites proclaimed the same shit. Not shutting this shit down only emboldened the dregs of society. Drug addicts are brazen enough to break into whatever place they want and steal/loot with not a care in the world. Our "Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone" wasn't a protest against racism but rather a bunch of woke asshats that use to tout the same crap you just spewed.
You seem to be behind the curve when talking about being progressive. Come here and live in Capitol Hill, U-district, Freemont, Wallingford or other "forward thinking" neighborhoods around Seattle. I now actively avoid those parts of town because stepping off the bus our out of a car and having to watch where I step because of the piles of human feces doesn't sound like a good time.
Seattle has a lot of outreach programs, free housing galore and a multitude of services (both gov't ran and private) for the downtrodden. Many downtrodden refuse those services because they would be required to get clean (paid for by society).
