This one time I was houselessly rolling through houston texas, and I climbed on a rooftop of an abondand bar and stayed the night.
Your best bet though is go for the heavily wooded areas. Then you will begin to realize how little are left... anyway...
the best sleep spots are the ones that are in plain sight but noone sees you. I've done it for 2 years or so you just gotta wake up at the crack of dawn.
all you need is some 550 cord, a tarp, a sleeping bag, a water bottle, a knife... or just a bunch of money... haha

Being homeless really blows man. I've been there. I would head up to your local dss and get some food stamps on the spot. Get a bicycle. Get a tent. Find a job. Take as much side work as you can. Remain proactive. You can be in a place of your own soon if you're working hard or smart. Labor ready will give your work on the spot and pay your the same day. Research them. Craig list labor and gigs section usually has some good opportunities for same day pay. Planet fitness is a good idea for showers and a locker.

You just want to stay in a city 1 month? Boring

Then I'm coming back and getting the rest of my things so I can hopefully move there and be stable 
It's a master plan I've been working on for a while now. I'll come back to this post with pictures and stuff after the month is up and elaborate more on what's going on through my head.
I leave Saturday morning

Go sleep in the woods. Make yourself a little fire. Maybe a tent if you have one. Should be cool

I'm not and hopefully I don't become one.
Thanks for the replies and good vibes guys. I'm more excited than I am nervous to tell you the truth.

Kush_Zombie said: I'm going to a town 5 hours away and I was originally just going to sleep in the truck with my ride but my ride bailed on me so now I'll be heading to that city and when I get there I won't have a place to stay SO I'm hitting the streets for a month.
The main concerns I have are showers, not getting my stuff robbed, and finding a place to sleep.
For the showers and not getting my stuff robbed, I think I'm going to get the cheapest membership I can at Planet Fitness so I can use their showers and lockers 24/7.
Finding a place to sleep seems like it'll be a bit trickier. Rather than hitting an alleyway or somewhere under a bridge, I'm thinking about climbing a tree and just falling asleep there. Any idea if that's possible? Never really slept in a tree before.
Also, what should I pack? I know I'll need to pack light but how many pairs of each clothing should I take? Doesn't get too cold around here and the place I'm going has a lot of homeless people already.
Please consider calling a shelter. They will provide you with food, clothing, and showers if they have them. Some may be booked up for the day while others require an interview process. Some only require that you show up first thing in the morning in order to secure your spot. Consider this so you don't have to sleep on the street.

Never mind, I just realized you are becoming homeless intentionally and not out of unfortunate circumstance.
I would get a tent if I were you, some fishing poles, swim trunks, pots and pans, and head to Venice Beach. Plenty of homeless people just live in their tents all day and eat and cook the fish they catch, not a bad life for a bum if you ask me.

Tenting it up is most comfortable to me. Dont even realize your homeless, just feels like camping. Heavily wooded areas or even small parks outsid3 of town where cops dont check. If you hit a campground they usually have bath houses.

I really have no clue why someone would do this aside from financial reasons, but even then I'm sure you could find a really sketchy apartment on the cheap.

Well I mean it is for financial reasons. I just could prolong it if I wanted to but I'm impatient and want to get shit done now. I'm also very miserable in my small town and have been homeless for a couple weeks before in Oregon during the winter.
This isn't why I'm going but it'll also give me time to put a few things into perspective. I like the adventure and the thrill as well. I'm confident that this journey will achieve what I seek to accomplish.
I have my list of things I'll need now and I'll have enough cash to eat, shower, and keep my belongings safe. If I can stick out the sleeping for a month then I'll be golden.

ENO doublenest hammocks are the shit and pack down to like the size of a fist. Also, take a tarp or something, you can make a decent canopy with that and some cordage if you use a hammock for sleeping.

Your master plan involves being homeless? Fuck that sucks I was homeless for about 8 hours and said fuck this. Can always go back to ma's and was out in less than 5 days.
I slept on the floor for a couple days while I figured shit out. But I'm not going to sleep on the streets or in a tree. That's retarded. The only thing keeping me playing the game is the fact that I enjoy working and I enjoy having somewhere to go. That's all.

Wendys fast food corp. policy is too give a free meal to the individual who tells them they are lost, have no money and are hungry. Saved me in a pinch a couple of times. Good luck.
