In my neighborhood you can get a nice 1950s detached ranch style (single story) house. I got my house for $55k, which is about as cheap as you can possibly find in a safe but working class neighborhood around here.

Here in Savannah, GA or the suburbs, you could buy a 3 bedroom 2 bath fixer upper in a transitional neighborhood.

After a long look on property, (real estate), sites, the cheapest I could find was an ex local authority, (projects), studio apartment at £115,000, ($150,000).
You could probably get a garage, or garden shed cheaper, but I didn't look for that.
A new Aston Martin Vantage is around £96,000, ($125,000).
I live in S.E. London, just under 1 kilometre from Tower Bridge, and approx. 80 metres from the Thames.

You can buy tiny homes inland from the Riviera:
Vente d'Immobilier dans les Alpes Maritimes (06) : Immobilier à Vendre


Also shoebox-like apartments on the coast:

I see a 4-room, 76 m² apartment in Nice, though it's located in a terrible district and needs a refurbishment.

I'm sure that you could m'am, but the only suburb that suits me around Savannah, is Tybee Island, we've been spoilt by renting in Troup Sq., Chippewa Sq., around Forsyth Park, and Monterey Sq.
History blows my mind, whether it's the WW1 cemeteries in France/Belgium, or Normandy, France, where my dad was wounded, driving a U.S. lease-lend Mack truck, or Chickamauga GA, and Gettysburg PA.

J'aime bien Cannes, Juan-Les-Pins, et Nice, mais je prefère Toulouse et Bordeaux.
Toulouse est une cité très belle, Carcassonne aussi, n'est-ce pas?

Not a house, not even a condo apartment. A cheap one bedroom apartment in an old condo building would start at about $180,000 if you were lucky.

You could buy about 2.5 acres of empty land in a rural area outside the city. So you'd have an empty lot of land that you could build something on, if you had more money.

Here you get a 2-bedroom flat in a crappy suburb or a 1-bedroom flat in a better suburb. Don't take the most expensive one and you can get a 2004 Ford Focus as well.

3rd largest urban area in ridiculously cheap Finland.

In the San Francisco Bay Area/Silicon Valley, you can't get ANYTHING for that much. It's not even a down payment unfortunately.

But for a cool $1.1 million, you can get this beautiful POS 1 bedroom tear down house! 163 Cerrito Ave, Redwood City, CA 94061 - realtor.com®
