I applied for jobs first and moved to the place where I got one.

Ah yes, genius! Why doesn't everyone think of this...

Oh yeah, because the only reason that's possible is because there's less people there. There are less people there because there are less job opportunities. By definition not that many people that take advantage of that. There's simply not enough jobs available that will allow you to live there. If everyone could do that there would be no cost advantage. It worked out that you found a job that covers the cost of living in a low cost of living area. That is uncommon.
