The middle of nowhere where nobody really wants to live has some really affordable places to live.
Indiana, for example, has whole houses under 100,000. Like to own them. And they aren’t even condemned!
Around me a 2br apartment is around 900 at the moment. You can still find one bedrooms for around 550-650. Not very good ones but housing is housing.
Problem is there’s nothing to do, very little good employment, and you’ll never make good money, ever. So if you move to a depressed area, or are unlucky enough to have been raised in one, you’ll probably be there forever, because everywhere else costs a lot more than whatever your nest egg amounts to.
If everyone has the mindset there would be no cities with anything to do. Real estate thrre is cheap you could buy a house and open a bar or board game cafe pretty easily.
Rents probably cheap enough to work your 9-5 and open it in the nights. Theres plenty of small towns with fun things to do. If they can find that niche it proves its possible and you need to find out what would work for you and your town.

The problem is a board game cafe might not make money outside a city.
