Considering Move From Connecticut To Ohio


Hi All:-)

I have a few questions to ask, and search is getting me confused lol. I am currently licensed in CT as a LPN, but am looking to move to another state. I have decided on either moving to Pennsylvania, or Ohio, but wanted more info about nursing in Ohio, specifically average pay rate and cost of living. I have been a LPN here for a little over a year, and my current pay rate (depending on where I go) is anywhere from $21.00/hr-$23.00/hr. COL here in CT is usually equal to or more than what anyone can afford, but I am comfortable and have become accustomed to getting paid a certain amount here. My average take home pay after the goverment gets finished ripping my check apart is usually between $730.00-$800/wk. What can expect in terms of pay, job availability, and housing in OH. Any and all answers are greatly appreciated and any websites that can give some ideas would be wonderful. Thanx Everybody for your help:-)
