In just a quick look at craigslist at Indiana's three largest cities (Indianapolis, Ft. Wayne and Evansville) you don't have to look very far to find several listings for $500 or less. With a minimum wage of $7.25, that's actually about 17 hours per week to afford the rent. I'm not saying that's great, but it's not nearly as bleak as you present.

My kids go to school in Evansville and they have been able to find some really nice places for less than $500.
