I don't know any of this for certain, but here are my tips:
1, Aim for a red state and/or county using the county-level election maps from 2016 or 2018.
2, Avoid big cities when possible (hopefully also avoiding the "metropolitan areas" surrounding the biggest cities). The smaller the population, the smaller the infrastructure/welfare, the smaller the corruption. Cheaper land/real-estate prices are just a secondary bonus of living away from the big cities.
3, Build up your skills/resume in the manufacturing industry if possible (with your degrees in pharma/food, you might want to aim for the Breadbasket states and look at the various food manufacturing companies). Trump is making a lot of companies seriously weigh shifting their global supply chains back to the USA, and once a manufacturing hub is fully operational, it's VERY hard to dismantle/outsource it without costing the company millions.
4, Try to find work with an American company, preferably with a company NOT based out of California or New York. Companies founded/run in "fly-over states" are less likely to try moving their business out of the very regions that gave them their prosperity in the first place.
Besides that, the US is one of the largest countries in the world, with a wide range of locales/cultures, and a massive network of roadways/railways/airports/seaports connecting it all. Throw a dart anywhere in the heartland, and you're likely to find wide open spaces with nice neighbors (and their nice stockpiles of guns) at a very low price (especially compared to Commiefornia or NYC).
