Thanks for the insight, I do appreciate it @pharesim

The only good way to work on the problem is catching, neutering and putting them back out.

One of the advantages of feeding the strays, you’re in a good position to support a Trap - Neuter - Return program. You know where strays congregate, and the population likely trusts you more than a total stranger. This makes it far easier to trap a stray and get it neutered.
