The Fort Wayne Indiana vicinity - specifically Southwest and Northwest areas are expanding and could use teachers. If you set up residence in the Southwest area, there is great/affordable housing, there is a ton of new/higher end housing, and you'd have everything you could want in an area retail and restaurant-wise. The entire vicinity is affordable with nice weather too.
If you're open-minded to living in a more rural area, I'd look into the Prairie Heights School district just north of Stroh Indiana nearby Big Turkey Lake. Great facilities, lots of students, and a large number of retirement-aged teachers. They could use new teachers and would likely create an opening for you if you contacted the principal (and a position wasn't already there). You could buy a place directly on the water of one of the large glacier-formed/water-ski lakes nearby and have very relaxing times in the summers. Really, you could have a tremendous lifestyle with low-cost of living working and living there.
