They receive resources like food and critical medical treatment from shelters and churches and hospitals. They acquire shelter via tents or abandoned houses, or at minimum from carting around a bunch of blankets. They acquire physical safety by their social structures. The food part rarely fails to the point of starvation, but around here sometimes they freeze from lack of shelter if they didn't get something in time. Recent demolition of abandoned row of houses near me fucked that up for a huge tribe of them; poor bastards once burned down my Internet because it was way below freezing and their stay-alive fire ripped up the side of a house and burned the fiber optic lines off the utility poles. They also may fuck up social structures and fight with each other, the drug gangs, or police/normies if they start doing some criminal shit or violent. I've had to flash a gun just once to get a group to back off me, though normally they don't get violent with people because they know they'll draw police attention. Probably get shot more trying to steal things; had a crackhead sleeping in my backyard once for a few days, neighbors and I had to stay on high alert.
Joys of living in the city. Just yesterday I was hanging out in an ally having a smoke to wait for food chit-chatting with a couple homeless guys smoking meth. I try to stay on decent or neutral terms with their tribes.
Moving from trash to pleb tier: Get a job, any job. An income stream assures you are mostly sheltered and fed. The point of civilization is specialization with some form of value-effort sharing, in our case that's money. Your labor is valuable in some way, convert it into money via job, use money to acquire other things of value. Less effort than soloing every basic need from scratch.
Patrician tier: get career, utilize advanced credit systems to get house and toys.
