Cheap Housing Housing

 I have a sister who is about to inherit enough money to lose her Section 8 HUD rent subsidy.  She was hoping to use the inheritance as a down payment on a home (perhaps a mobile home?) in the boondocks somewhere.  Her Social Security income is such that it would have to be under $80,000.  She no longer drives, so it has to be ijn walkijng distance of whatever town has medical srvices.

This may be a impossible situation.  There are actually houses in California below $80,000 such as Alturas, Susanville, and Weed.   California or Oregon beause of their generous healh insurance.  Any suggestons?
