Homeless Camps in West Michigan

It's not the nicest home at "North Camp" -- a settlement of homeless shanties that has grown in recent years. 

That honor goes to Cookie's place, just down the way. But Gary Owczarzak and Cookie still live on the same side of the tracks. 

"He's got a mailbox down there," said Gary Owczarzak, a resident of this homeless camp in the city of Walker. 

He's pointing down the railroad tracks, toward the home of a homeless man known as Cookie.
