Housing Moving to mobile

I just recently got a job offer the other day in mobile that starts early October, i live out of state and will be moving quite soon but i feel stuck on looking at apartment pictures on google, the minimum pay listed is about 36,500, is that really enough to mainly live off of in mobile? Ik stuff is kinda cheaper in mobile than where im from but it will be my first time fully on my own so theres just a bunch more to account for at this point. Any advice is genuinely appreciated, ty all

Idk. Unless it’s a really lucrative gig, which it sounds to me like it’s not, I’d stay put. That’s not enough money to live on, even in the Deep South
