Philadelphia. You can easily get a 1 bedroom under $2k a month (mine is under $1k, and it's in a pretty wealthy area), plenty of art, and Fairmount and Wissahickon are huge parks with lots of nature.
i've been considering moving to Philly next year for a lot of those reasons. Plus there's trains going up and down the east coast and that's really cool
And since Amtrak is subsidized in the northeast, Amtrak is cheap as shit. I'm going to a dance event in DC soon, it cost me $38 total for a round trip. I get to laugh at the suckers who are driving to it, which is most of the people in my scene.
And it certainly has its flaws, but SEPTA is one of the most comprehensive public transit systems in a city in the United States. Especially since some Regional Rail lines connect with NJT.

Being able to take cheap trains to the MoMA and other museums in New York would be :chefs-kiss:
