Sept. 5 (UPI) -- The Hurricane Harvey death toll has risen to more than 60 people, as cleanup efforts and disaster relief attempts continue to progress in southeast Texas.
Many Houston residents who had been in shelters for the past week are beginning to come out to assess the damage and chart their way forward. FEMA-funded hotels provided sanctuary for up to 53,000 Texans as of Monday, while many have chosen to move in with relatives or other public housing complexes.
