The 'Territories' of the Homeless and A Sense of Place are two more articles in the SF Chron's series on homelessness in SF. Along with the handy map, it's a guide to the various neighbourhoods of the homeless.
Recognizing distinctions such as the "territories" helps show the human face of a population that is now — to most San Franciscans — both extremely familiar and painfully foreign at the same time.
From Car Nation to the Heroin Zone to the Service / Crack Zone, it's all there. Fodor's 2004 should include this info.
