adj.
Describes a homeless person who lives in a car.
Example Citation:
"For decades, life in California has revolved around the automobile: You can't live on the coast without a car, the saying goes. Now the homeless in San Francisco are taking this tenet one step further: They say they can't afford to live anywhere but in their cars, and they want the city to provide a space for parking.
A group of about 150 supporters of the idea have formed the Vehicularly Housed Residents Association, which Judy Appel, staff attorney for the Coalition on Homelessness, an advocacy group, calls 'a neighborhood group without the neighborhood.'"
—Jane Meredith Adams, "'Vehicularly housed' seek the American dream; They ask for place to park their home," The Boston Globe
