The Vehicle/Structure Tally is an optional feature used to count Vehicles and Makeshift Shelters (VMS) that appear to be temporary living situations. People engaged during the PIT Count while living in a vehicle or structure are asked how many people are sleeping with them in this location.

The Vehicle/Structure Tally has logic that aligns with HUD guidance to determine if the recreational vehicle (RVs) being tallied is suitable for habitation. Estimates are derived according to the logic defined within the Vehicle and Makeshift Shelter Programming Specifications and these estimates are included within the unsheltered count estimates. 

An example Vehicle and Makeshift Shelter report is shown below.
