Affordable areas near Mount Vernon?

Been meaning to ask this. I'm single, late 50s, and Average temperature is around 49--F, so expect cold winters. Poverty rate is 12.9%, which is around average. The median home value here is around $161,400, which is actually reasonable. The weather takes some getting used to. The school system varies a lot by neighborhood. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Would love some local perspective. Cost of living is definitely rising, but still manageable. The food scene here is surprisingly good.

Hot take but it's exactly what I was looking for. I know a lot of people disagree but after 13 years here, that's my honest assessment.
