I can nearly guarantee that there are many people living under $1k/mo within 10 miles of wherever you are. That’s the low-chaos option if you really want to focus.
Such a question is common from people who are running away from an unhealthy situation unrelated to geography. If so, maybe cut that off prior to and independently of the move, and then probably move anyway.

I have a ton of money saved up and I've never gotten a chance to live in another country.
So why not. Worst come to worse I can always come back and proceed to work another 30 years.
It depends where you are. You're almost certainly going to have car costs if you're not in some city--and for many cities you're going to have to put up with miserable bus service. I'm pretty sure you're not going to draw a 10 mile radius from SF, Manhattan, or Boston and get to $1K/month or it's going to be really miserable.
Your statement's probably literally true but I assume it's mostly people living with family or other community.
There would be a huge bridge trying to live on $1k/month in the US, assuming you were ratcheting down from some larger income. You wouldn't qualify for subsidized health insurance, for example, until that $1k/month was in place for a year.
