Pick up something like this: https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/9999-Brices-Creek-Rd-Flat-Lick-KY-40935/346264917_zpid/

Then call @canoeguy and get a cabin thrown up

Funny enough I literally just came down off the mountain showing some property for sale. But at 455 acres it’s a tad more than the OP is looking for.

Check out Northwest Arkansas. We were looking for just that but have shifted our planning. Look around the West Fork area; near Fayetteville for jobs, healthcare, restaurants, bars, etc. but only like 15-20 minutes away at most. I'd recommend buy land and building but you might get lucky and see something you like.
We were looking for something as a stopgap measure until retirement but decided to keep our home in Bentonville and look towards Bella Vista for retirement.

It's possible in WI but you'll need luck on your side and not have the highest of expectations

Do you want a conservative state or local area? Parts of Northern Michigan are conservative as the day is long, but left/far left at the state level. You'd want North of Midland and anything 25 miles East of Lake Michigan. West coast of Lower Peninsula will be expensive and getting full of lefties.

Co worker sold his tract house here for $350k, then paid the note off at $87k. Then found a nice house on 5ac in Oklahoma for $250k bought it free and clear. Even had some change left over. He then quit his job and retired to OK.

Depends. Do you mind if your neighbors to either side of you have a side business selling meth?

In ID you can get a one bed studio apartment with a tree in the common area, and a picture of a mountain between your hall closet and the half bath for 450K

Somewhere in the Midwest, perhaps central Michigan. Budget for frequent car replacement and super home insulation.

Don't forget budgeting heating costs as well, unless OP has a good supply of wood and the muscles to chop them up it's going to be expensive

$1000/year isn’t a lot when it’s a really cold winter. This year was very mild so much less than $1000.

Lassen Co, California.

Yes its CA, but the area is as conservative as it gets.

$309K, 26acres and house:

Of course you will want to factor in the crazy expensive fire insurance.

I use to be in Washington county. Eastern KY is cheaper.

$450k and 10+ nice acres?  Does OP own a good tent?

28 listings in NH which meet OP's budget and lot size.  Not only that, but we actually have trees and small mountains.
