im from northern va, plan on moving down to nc in a few years.

VA, WV, and NC are all great choices for this if you look around. lots of variety of terrain, distance to cities, etc, and 200k would be plenty.

my gf's family did what you wanna do, in sw va, i think it was 100k (might've dished out 50k more for more surrounding land) for a nice sized house, 2 cabins, and 10 acres, bordering a stream/river. 30 minutes from their real house in roanoke. pretty sweet setup.

Forget the US. For 200k you can probably buy Somalia.

I really liked the Oxford, Mississippi area when I visited. Oxford itself is expensive, but the surrounding towns are dirt cheap. Good food, good blues, and hot college chicks. Everyone was really nice so making friends shouldn't be a problem.

Southern Indiana, just north of Louisville, KY.

Big city features, best poker room in the midwest (Caesars), cheap housing (mine is 3650 sq feet house and 2 acres for $195K)

Can't beat it.

Agreed on all counts. Though I'm not sure if rural living is the key to OP or simply keeping price down. I wouldn't consider it truly rural being so close to Louisville. I guess it depends how far north you're talking. Also, the weather there is really weird. Very humid in the summer, completely unpredictable day-to-day all year around.
