Moving to a new state

I am a third year nursing student in Nj. I will be graduating this spring with my ASN, and have plans for immediate entry into an online BSN program. I have only ever lived in NJ and want to broaden my horizons. Does anybody have suggestions on what city/state, they find better than my expensive NJ? Preferably somewhere nice weather no snow and leans left. Let me know what you guys think... Thanks NurseNick55

Austin, Texas is nice and San Antonio is very new grad/ADN friendly. The cost of living is decent and the people are great. Austin is also VERY liberal!!

Texas was one my go to states, I have been researching. I have never been there but plan to go thanks for the heads up.

I moved to the Sacramento, CA area last year and really love working here. CNA is very active and has won many great patient protections like state laws for patient ratios. Other benefits include the amazing pay, good health insurance, great retirement, extra staff to help with repositioning patients, and strong labor laws that ensure you really do get breaks.

I would say Sacramento in particular is great for cost of living compared to other large CA cities while still having high pay. I more than doubled my pay as an RN in Oklahoma when I moved, so I really feel like I came out ahead despite the cost of living increase.
