tl;dr Seeking suggestions for:
-places to live
-entry level jobs

US citizen moving back to the US soon, after a few year stint in Europe. I am not traveling; I plan to stay in one place. I know nobody in the US except my parents, who won't help me. So I need to land and then start living out of a backpack, building a new life from scratch.
Where is a good place to live, and why? Preferably a place where I can walk or bike to work (or a job that provides travel). I have only lived in more medium/smaller-sized cities, and have never lived in one of the major metropolises, but I have been considering them.
Where is a good place to work, and why? Places you have heard people enjoy working at, who treat their employees well, pay well, and have a low turnover rate because people like it. Or better yet: good places you have worked or currently work at.
Specific examples for locations and jobs are better than broad generalisations, but will I appreciate any input. Assume I am young or old and have no degree or significant work experience, so entry-level only. My goal is simply to get my own cheap place and work for at least a few years to build up savings again, while getting training or education for something long-term.

Oh and if you happen to know a good international opportunity, I am all ears. Current similar threads: >>2841496 and >>2817321

And there are a few similar "where2live?" threads >>2839531 >>2848081 >>2839810 but they are looking for their own specific criteria which don't align with mine. Homeless advice thread >>2839861 since that is already part of my backup plan.

Land on an Alaskan fishing boat and live at work. You can go from one fish season to the next, like crabs, and live off of boats each time.

Seconding Alaska. It's expensive as shit, but there are a lot jobs, like seasonal stuff, where you live on site and get fed at work so you can save a lot of money if you don't spend it on beer or other bullshit
