Speaking as a solo player of the last 5-6 months, missions are a good choice for it. The trick is to do them in highsec, not low/nil. The pay is marginally better in lowsec, but the limited time/attention makes highsec ultimately more rewarding.
I find a good mix of market trading, industry, and mission running related skills allows me to log on in short bursts and do whatever I have the time/attention to accommodate - while avoiding the monomania burnout of just doing one thing over and over and over.

100% sure deadspace in highsec is protected space.
Protected as in CONCORD will attack aggressors, yes. Not protected as in "other players can't come there"

There is no instances in Eve m8
I know. That's what I'm clarifying, as the OP sounded like he previously thought deadspace was like an instance.

Can anyone recommend anything close to Eve in terms of universe size/scale and game complexity? I'm a huge fan of the genre.
Not being a fanboy - but there isn't. There honestly isn't much at all in the way of sandbox MMOs right now, much less space-themed ones.
But if you're not heartset on giving up Eve - there are L4 agents (more than likely some already available to you) in highsec too. Have a look over here.
In highsec, while players can warp in to try and take loot or salvage off you - they can't attack without concord retribution. Which means they almost never do unless you load your ship down with lots of shiny expensiveness to offset their ship loss cost.

...it could come down to flying a gimped ship all the time so there's no risk...
Honestly, if your lost ship weighed in at 600m between the ship and fittings both - you'll be quite reasonably safe in highsec with the same fitting.
I'd say "completely safe" - but this is eve, and someone would gank you at a big loss to themselves just to prove me wrong :p

My agents are in high sec space, but they seem to always randomly throw me into neighboring sub 0.5 systems which I assumed comes with the level. Is there any way to curb that? If there is no low sec space even close maybe?
Yep. As long as there's no lowsec within 4 or so jumps, you'll stay in highsec. I personally have two different L4 agents I fly for and have never ever been sent into lowsec on a mission.
