Where is the cheapest place to live in America?

Question

and what makes it that way?

Answer 1

Probably North Dakota or Nebraska. I've looked into real estate prices in both locales and it is next to nothing. Then again, there are a lot of other places like that (found a HUGE business building for sale out in Kansas for about $40,000... found a house in Illinois for about $12,000).

Basically, anywhere in the sticks. Even Upstate New York is pretty inexpensive regarding real estate (plus you don't have to pay taxes on food or clothing)!

Answer 2

There's a bunch of people living under the North slough bridge and I'm pretty sure they pay nothing.  I'd say that makes it one of the cheapest--plus there is a target and a safeway nearby with lots of dumpsters so they can go shopping and eating at the same time.  Only thing I think they pay for is cigs and booze cause the needles they get free from the needle exchange people.

Answer 3

Laughlin, Nevada

Answer 4

A Federal Prison.

Why? Because the inmate is allowed conjugal visits, he pays no taxes, bills, has free medical, 3 free meals a day, a library, Internet, sports, free college, and many more free bees those of us have to work for on the outside. It seems as though crime does pay.

Answer 5

Missouri!!

Answer 6

West Virginia

There is absolutely nothing there !

Answer 7

Not sure of the total package but the least tax'ed state is Oklahoma. That's total tax including federal, state, and local.
