Nordic countries have essentially eradicated homelessness by allowing the government to take an active interest in fixing the underlying issues that cause it. As a citizen, I don't want the burden of having to fix homelessness, that's what I pay taxes for.

The Nordic countries also tend to be brutally cold, dark or damp for a substantial chunk of the year. (With the exception of Denmark perhaps.) No one could survive sleeping outside in those conditions.

People say the same about Seattle or Vancouver BC (and Vancouver WA) but the homeless populations just get larger during the worst weather months.

Turns out with a jacket and fentanyl, and tents, you can survive just about anything!
