What city best meets the needs of a single bonafide "slacker" looking for the city life? (living, rates)

[idriveabucket]

You know ..

Dirt cheap rent, public transportation, affordable and easily attainable marijuana, and anything else a city could offer that's conducive to living extremely inexpensively. The city should rank in the top 50 or so in population. Don't want to live out in the boonies somewhere.

Don't care about:

* Neighborhood crime rates
* family environment
* schools
* city-attractions (museums, parks, etc.)
* friendliness of neighbors

Well Montreal is supposedly not very expensive, public transportation is good and marijuana is apparently quite plentiful and available up north. Only thing is that a slacker may not wish to go to the trouble of immigrating. (Or learning French--but if you don't need much of a job, that's not necessary.)

Portland, Oregon

I second Portland, OR... it has good public transportation and it's laid back enough that a slacker is going to blend in pretty well. Oregon has some of the best weed in the nation. I guess the main problem would be rent but I suppose you can find cheap rental situations in some areas.

I would say Las Vegas. I am a slacker and do okay.

Austin, TX. Seems like a "slacker's" paradise based on your defn. of "slacker".

[Cowboys fan in Houston]

Seattle, Portland, or Austin.

[Paperwork]

Clearly the thread starter is looking for "inexpensive as possible".

When did Seattle, Portland, or Austin become inexpensive?

[TheWereRabbit]

Portland fits the scene but not the $$ and it seems like your main "scene" is not having money.

PS- You can get good weed anywhere. It's America, god damn it.
