finding the right location

i have been looking for the right rental house which is preffered to be in the middle of "civilisation". personally i am the one who do not want to trapped in one location which i work and live there. i like to make new friends and socialise with them. some seniors advised me to just rent a house or maybe bought one in where i work but i have different thought that is to break away from this craziness. that one thing for sure is that i am bored living in the same ambience since i have started my work here.
