I agree with most of this, with some reservations... - The Matrix doesn't get very good mileage compared to the rest of this group. - The Mazda's are quite excellent and usually comparatively cheap used. Also consider '99-'03 Protege's. Again, mileage will likely be under 30mpg.
As hawver mentions below, Civics and Corollas are the two most reliable cars on the road for the most part. That said, if I were in your shoes I'd likely go with a Scion xA or xD. I'm partial to Toyotas but don't much like Corollas after having owned two.
