Unemployment doesn't last very long, nor do you make much because it's based on what your income was. COVID gave special rules that extended and substantially increased the amount. That has since passed, and the amount was enough to only afford rent, food, and maybe a car payment in an affordable town. Housing and public transportation. The two things cities don't want to fix, because city boards are fascists that know only the wealthy of the city control it.
