Generally no. I don't really see much homeless people but if I do it's usually infront of a supermarket or any place you can get food. In the nearby small city with a population of 20k I usually see the same 1 or 2 homeless folks infront of the market, neither of them speaking Dutch or English. I'm guessing they're from the local refugee center.
I want to help homeless folks but at the end of the day if I give them money I can't know how they'll use it. That's why I always buy them food or water rather than money. The ones around my area are always very happy with a nice sandwich or some water.
In the bigger cities however I've had occasions where homeless people turned down food or water, even by one that camped outside a McDonalds.
