How do you afford to live here?

Looking at apartment costs and job listings it seems like it just doesnt add up. Making $25 an hour 40 hours a week puts you around a gross 48k a year. If renters wont consider somebody making less than 3x the monthly rent that leaves apartments at $1,333 for a studio/1BR or a place for $2,666 if you can find somebody to live with. How does the average joe make it in this city? Do you have any survival tips?
