Single Mom Needs Car - $1,500 (Columbia/West Columbia)

Good morning.
I’m new to the area a single mother who recently lost her vehicle and currently takes me three hours round-trip to get to work every day.
I’m looking for a cheap reliable vehicle to get me back-and-forth to work until I am able to say for something else, it has been a challenge trying to find a car out here but I’m just going out on a whim.
Thank you.
