As far as I understand, they asked not to be located in a central and "public" location. I am making the assumption they prefer a more private location away from people largely because they fear...well...exactly what we are seeing here, which is that they will be hated and feared because they are not living in traditional homes.
It's funny, I made nearly the opposite assumption from you. That the residents of ABTC don't want to be in proximity to the problematic homeless that the people of Woolwich think these folks are. I suspect that they would stand out as the "privilege ones". Plus from the photo's I've seen, many of them have possessions that don't fit inside their homes, which would not last long in a place like the old bus terminal suggested above.
But this is a completely baseless assumption.
