Again, by spending less than the median housing cost, ideally by spending no more than a third of the median housing cost.
Eg. The median rent in Chicago is about $2K\mo right now. But you can live an more economically depressed part of town and get a one-bedroom for $1.1K or a three bedroom for that same $2K and split that with two roommates.

cleaning the litterbox is actually less unpleasant:
doesn't have to happen at a specific time

The price of meat is currently artificially lowered by several factors, including government subsidies and lax regulations. Correcting that would be good for everyone, even if it made meat a "sometimes" food for everyone but the rich.
Chicago, I'm a waitress myself and support a family of five here on that income.
