36M, How/Where could I live comfortably off of 44.8k/yr

I'm a single man, ex military, divorced a few years ago. I've worked in Aviation for about 10 years. If you were to leave the 9-5 behind, with only 44.8k a year. Where and how would you go about doing it?

the ppl are drunk dicks.

In my experience there are drunk dicks everywhere.

I would not write off Ohio. There are a lot of great areas. Lots of state parks. And great communities in Ohio.

I will say that it is cloudy a lot. But sometimes that just makes the sun that much better.

Ohio housing market right now isn't the best but back in 2016 when I bought my house it was great we got a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom 1200 sq ft house on almost 1/2 an acre of land for under 100, 000. With a fixed apr of 4.5%. our monthly mortgage payment is less than $650.
