Okay, you're viewing your content in DazStudio as Show Folders as List, correct?

I just switched over to that view and am presented with two folders within the first content column: DAZStudio and content. The DAZSTudio folder contains all of your DAZStudio-optimized files, and the content folder contains your Poser-optimized files. When I click on the content folder in the Contents tab, the next column displays the standard Poser fair (Figures, Poses, Faces, Hair, Hands, Props, Lights, Camera). I was able to find my Daz People folder under the Figures directory.

I guess I'm a little confused as to what your problem is. 

Are you linking and external Poser Runtime to DazStudio or are you linking to the internal Runtime folder within DazStudio's content folder?

Under Preferences/Directories, is the path to your content correct? The default setting is to find DazStudio content first — then you have to click on the bar that reads "Daz Studio Content Directories" and select "Poser Content Directories" from the drop-down menu. Once again, check the pathway to your Poser content to ensure it's correct. 

If you've checked both directory pathways and feel they are both correct, then you should have no trouble finding the Daz People folder. The only thing I can think of that would cause this is that you don't have any Poser content installed. 

Does it appear that I'm understanding the problem correctly, or am I still not grasping your problem?
