You may need to live with a few roommates to get in a place for 400 a month. It is about 1,300 for a one bedroom here, 1000 for a studio. I personally would rather pay more for a better place and cut other expenses. Any place where you can get around without a car is going to cost more for an apartment than somewhere in the middle of no where. Europe is expensive and the currency is worth more so it's even more. Maybe you could get by in eastern Europe on what you are talking about but it may lack other things you desire.
You could probably live in like Bakersfield, or Riverside CA. Only an hour from LA. Maybe some places in AZ too. I actually looked outside Chicago, it is pretty cheap there in a roommate scenerio. Of course all of the cities in the middle of no where like Louisville and St. Louis have dirt cheap outskirts but you might be bored there. Actually, most places seem pretty reasonable compared to NY, LA and SF. I have checked Canada and I didn't find anything too reaonable.
Why do you need furnished? Buying a few pieces of furniture can be very inexpensive if you buy it used. I wouldn't stress about furniture.
