There are plenty of houses for sale in the 50-70k range in smaller towns that orbit large cities but sure, "literally no one"
One of the worst parts about house searching is when you look up how much you can get for relatively little if you're willing to live in impovershed areas in the middle of nowhere. The kind of places defined by the main industry that left the area at least a decade ago.
Then compare it to where you actually have to live die to life and career situations.
