You can buy a reliable ten year old Toyota Corolla for less than $2k, it will run for at least another ten years with nothing more than basic maintenance, and the income area you live in doesn't affect liability insurance in any appreciable way as you don't need full coverage on the vehicle (you'd pay more than the cost of the vehicle for it over a few years anyway).

(Add in what happens to a low-income family when their new-to-them $2k, minimally insured Corolla gets totaled in the first week to the "things that make it expensive to be poor" list, too.)
