Stop wanting to live in the city
I left.

>lived off money until I found a job
Not that hard Anon. Don't delude yourself into thinking things will be better just because its a new place. If things weren't working out at home its likely on you. If you move to a new city you are starting from scratch, for better or worse.

It's 2000 people but it's rural but it's not there's no city anywhere and it's nothing but fields but there's like small hamlets around and mine is the only really small one so I have a few neighbors but 0 stores

Did you have a car thoigh? I don't know if my sanity can take long enough to save up fucking thousands and then who even knows if I fail I come back stuck again and just wasted months and thousands of dollars

I had one. I sold it when I moved to the city because there is a train station 5 minutes from my house, the drivers here are terrible, and cars are expensive and I needed the money

Could I do it if I found a job really fast and could just pay for a room with whatever money I have before I get my check

Thats what I said I did. I saved enough to have a fairly comfortable pillow while I looked for a job

Stay. City life sucks so much. Am close to killing myself because of it.

WHat if I do it with the bare minimum of money

Save up until you have some more. I'm talking at least a couple months rent and necessities like groceries. It took me almost two months until I found a job.
Unrelated since I grew up in a suburb of dallas.
