The very lower end? 97% of Indian townships lack water treatment. Only 30% of Indians live in major metro areas.

It's reasonable to assume that in the context of our discussion, the hypothetical young America would probably choose to locate himself in a metro, urban area where there's ample supply of good water.

But, I agree with you India probably isn't the best possible choice here (but still, as others have pointed out, if you have America money (say, 80k), you'll be living there like a king). There's still a lot of other countries besides America that might be a good fit for you.

I've heard that Thailand is a very pleasant (and cheap) place to live.
