We are experiencing an ever-growing homeless population. Their healthcare needs are not met for multiple reasons, including lack of services and mental health issues prevalent in the population. We have reviewed the literature for reporting on skin disease among the homeless. The most common conditions identified are infectious, with tinea pedis, being the most prevalent. The lower extremities are most commonly affected by skin conditions identified. There is little STD testing among the homeless, especially syphilis. Most alarming is the absence of information on melanoma in this population.
