Unwanted visitors to my property

I own a 4-plex near Jewel Lake in Anchorage. Since the weather has warmed up, I have homeless people coming onto the property, knocking on my door, or hiding in our backyard nearly every day. I talked with several of them:

- One guy was curious how much rent costs and could he dig expired canned food out of our dumpster

- One girl keeps coming back looking for a previous tenant who was arrested + evicted right before I closed on this place - I got startled when she was looking in my window at 6:30 am this morning!

Other than security cameras, any recommendations on how to handle this? Since they typically leave pretty quickly once confronted, I haven't called the police... But I am becoming a bit uncomfortable with this situation.
