Wondering if buying 5/6 properties under $80,000 each is feasible. 

However, a few things I would suggest to give you a better perspective is: 1) Talk to property management companies in the area to see if they operate in the area and/or have comments on tenants in the area, 2) Speak to a few banks to understand how they would lend on this property, 3) Scan Zillow/craigslist and other listing sites to understand the rental market for listings...

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Suggestions you currently use and know work well for you preferred 

I would love some suggestions on what other avenues I can take or prehaps another type of industry?
