Barring roommates, at $1k/month for rent, you're pretty much not gonna be living in any downtown areas unless your apartment is run down or the city you're living in isn't that nice.
I've been looking at different areas and found a brand new tiny studio in downtown St. Pete for about $1250/month before utilities.
If you like hot weather and want a progressive city, maybe try Austin. Pretty sure I'm gonna move there in a couple months. $1k/month won't allow you to live super close to 6th St. (the main nightlife hub), but you can find places for $900-1k in neighbourhoods close by that are only ~$7 cab ride away.
