On the power lines, that is a straight-out, no go. You want to run from that. Not only do you run the risks and can't build whatever you want, if the State ever decides to put a corridor or anything like that like they are doing here in Maine, that's where they'll put it. They'll take over your land, cutting trees and moving whatever, and run the corridor through your lot and you'll have zero say over it. (My aunt is losing a lot of land due to this and her land she hays and raises cattle on.)

For the cheapest land (and taxes, which is something you want to look at even if the place appears affordable), you want to look at Townships. Nobody lives out there, the land is shockingly cheap, and there's extremely low taxes (and most of the time no town office with the possibility of no police except for State Troopers). Though affordable, there's typically reasons why people don't live in those areas like no nearby grocery stores, no cell reception in some to most places, and possibly no convenient gas stations. Some of these Townships might not even have people living in them.
Due to the lack of people in the Townships, predators may be overwhelming in those areas, so if you do move into one of them, be mindful that your coop may need more protection than your average urban coop.
