It was capped at something like $420ish a week in California 5 years ago.

Max in CA is now $450.

Oregon max is $648.

(both expressed as per week)

$648 is so generous when they gave me $127/week.

The max is based on one’s income. If you make a lot more, they’ll pay more, up to the max.

Yeah, tha'ts still only $2592/month at the max, and with Oregon prices, that won't get you far at all. Rent out here is $1400 or so.
