What is the cheapest place to rent that is still relatively safe in the USA?
I will likely be going through a divorce soon, and while I am not happy about it, I am trying to make the best of a crappy situation by using the opportunity to see the world for a few years before I settle back down. I work remotely, so I can live anywhere with a reliable internet connection. I plan to be a digital nomad in 1-3 month stretches and basically just need a home base for my stuff, my mailing address, and to return to in between adventures.
**Must Haves:**
\- As cheap as possible rent for a studio or 1 bedroom. Ideally under $600 a month.
\- Safe enough that I can leave the place unoccupied for months at a time without too much worry that someone will break in.
\- Not a high likelihood of natural disasters that would put my stuff at risk, such as tornadoes or wildfires.
**Bonus Points:**
\- On or nearby the West coast. I currently live and work in Washington state, so minimizing the distance to move and travel for occasional work stuff.
\- Some element of interest that would make the few months a year I'd stay there worthwhile, such as beautiful hikes, interesting landmarks, or a cute downtown.
I don't care about all the usual stuff that makes these tiny nowhere towns unattractive - Resources, walkability, politics, school districts, etc. are all irrelevant. I just need somewhere cheap and safe and not utterly terrible.
