Moving to northern Oregon new grad....

[Proudmomof3boys]

I graduate in 3 months and am moving my family back to my home state of Oregon. I need some advice from nurses that have worked in Astoria vs Kelso/Longivew, and if you work in Portland what is better besides pay working in a bigger city? Agonizing over where to move my family as I know finding a job can take awhile, especially as a new graduate, so help or advice would be greatly appreciated. We current live in Arizona and staying here past my graduation is not an option, so please, help a girl out! Debating moving to St. Helens vs Clatskanie, and if we have to cross the bridge and live in Washington debating Battle Ground. I know NO health care people in that area, so this is my only outlet for that. Thanks in advance guys and gals!
