How many tents house more than 1 person? Even if each tent had 3 people, 20k per person is still a lot.

You're misunderstanding: The money goes to many things, not just tents. The article doesn't even indicate that tents are the majority of the cost.

The cost is for providing basic social services; one of them is shelter.
