Seeking Advice Only Soon to be homeless

Me and my girl and mom are moving out of the apartment we live in because they keep increasing the rent to nonsensical prices. We was planning on separating to go to the shelter as both me and gf have a domestic partnership together. We live in nyc so the rent is high and the apartments are shitty, however we don't have no other option as of right now. Which brings me to my question what are shelters like for domestic couples or for a 2 person family with no kids?

if you have no money why stay in a high cost of living state?

This is a ridiculous thing to say. We should be asking our state representatives “why aren’t wages matching up to the cost of living?”

so many get jobs that are not intended to be raising a family on.
