maybe not in a city, but I've lived in a rural area on less than $1000/month and I still know people who pay less than $300/month for rent.

after rent, having no car (bicycle) and no data plan cut things down even more.

only real issue is lack of medical insurance.

How do you live in a rural area in the US without a car?

was not rural, bit lived in the centre of a small city (60k persons)

was 5 minutes walk to nearest grocery and 5 minutes bike to work. Though in the winter I would walk (half hour) because biking on ice is deadly.

I guess 'living' is relative...
