There's a reason why I live in Boston. My house is 20 minutes from downtown Boston, and 15 minutes from MIT/Harvard Sqare/Cambridge, and three years ago, my 3 bedroom, 1.5 bedroom house with a large country kitchen sitting on a sixth of an acre of land cost me $168,000 dollars (I pay ~$700/month mortgage).
(I love to really piss off Silly Valley types by pointing this out. :-)
Best of all, I don't have to live out in the middle of nowhere (the Boston Symphony, lots of amateur/semi-professional/professional theater productions, etc.), and there are lots of smart people to socialize with.
