Cheapest nice rural place to live in the US ?

[kevin017]

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.
