Florida. But wages are low, you'll be critically short staffed most of the time and technology is a century behind. Still using paper charts, cardexes etc.

The 'Sunbelt' cities with rapidly-growing populations tend to have nursing shortages.

Los Angeles, CA
Las Vegas, NV
Albuquerque, NM
El Paso, TX
Dallas-Fort Worth, TX
San Francisco, CA
San Diego, CA
.....and many more that I cannot think of.

I live in Dallas-Fort Worth and there are many jobs for nurses here.
