culver city, mar vista, and playa vista all have relatively affordable options and would be good areas for you. i think living alone on $80K is definitely doable (i did it with less), but you'll have to set expectations that in order for it to be comfortable, you'll most likely be in an older building (no w/d in unit, maybe no dishwasher, older fixtures, no building amenities, etc.) but if you're ok with that could easily get something for $1500-2000 which i think is doable on that salary. if you do a studio you could probably get a "nicer" one, a 1bd would definitely need to accept something a little older but definitely can still be made nice!
