Champaign Urbana is primarily a college town. I went to college there. Carle is very close to campus.
I would check out the Savoy area if I were moving to town with a family. I don't know anything about the schools in the area other than the university.
Both towns have some sketchy neighborhoods. But are primarily safe.
What unit did you apply to? I work at Carle now.
New grad BSN start at about $23.00/hr now which isn't great, but you're not going to find high paying nursing jobs in middle-of-nowhere Illinois. I don't know anything about school districts, but in my opinion the best neighborhoods are around West-Side Park and the country club in Champaign. Urbana between Lincoln and Vine are nice too but you'll be around more students.
