Oh yeah, I forgot about the oil. Won't matter cuze the country is going green.

We have windmill farms (Oklahoma IS where the wind goes sweeping down the plains) and my best customer is on the Natural Gas side, we have a few natural gas fueling stations around town, makes me happy, I'll be less happy if/when trucking is required by law to use natural gas but I'll be better off for it.  Chesapeake Energy has developed a very large presence in recent years and is steadily growing, even managing to keep some college graduates in-state which has historically been an issue.  Energy will never be worthless.

What about other options besides a tent?
Like what?

If there is enough room I would consider it. But I don't want to be in a trailer park.

Why don't you want to live in a trailer park?

Oklahoma City and surrounding area, one of the least hit economies.  For 100K you can not only find something that meets your minimum requirement, you'll have plenty of options.  
I've looked around there a little bit. OK is a no notice homeschool state.

I don't like neighbors.

What about just a trailer, but not in a park?

I know a couple of nuns who live as hermits north of here, in the country. They bought ten acres of treed land, built two tiny houses (300 sq ft), one for each of them. To support themselves, they work as nurses aids for minimum wage two days a week.

Small towns in Florida.  Where I used to live this was possible.  I don't know how much land you are after though.

Also maybe Idaho/Oklahoma/Nebraska, etc.

Why not just get a house then?

Nebraska should definitely be on the list for being able to get 3+ bedroom house in decent shape & land for under $100k.

If you have a van or a truck/camper, you can live in it and save lots of money.

http://cheaprvliving.com/howtoconvertavan.html

I once had a friend (a libertarian) who was going to college at Eastern Washington University. He lived in an old bus he had converted into a motor home. Except that the motor didn't work. He kept the thing parked in the school parking lot, and lived there for an entire year. The administrators tried to make him move it, but he said, "Bite me--I paid for my parking pass!"

Or, you can just live in your car.

You should ask Dan (one of the FTL Creative Team) about the "park" he lived at for a while. Sounded pretty ancap to me.

Also what are prices like up in Coos county?

Much of the cheapest low crime housing in the country tends to be in the farm areas of ND, SD, MT, KS and NE.
