Hello! I have been an L&D RN BSN on my own for about 2.5 months after 4 months of orientation. I feel the need to maybe relocate for personal reasons. What is the best way to find the best places to relocate to and be able to compare cost of living and salaries?

google search is the obvious. your own research is key. look at housing cost and pay on indeed..

This is just a word of caution, so use it as you wish...you may or may not have difficulty finding employment in a new location with only six months of experience.

Many hiring managers and recruiters will silently wonder why you left your first job without sticking around for a full year. From their perspective, hiring you may seem like a risky proposition.

Good luck to you!

This is a fair point. So you may want to choose your new location and start applying for jobs there, but don't make any official move until you've got a job offer.
