Upstate NY Question

Hi all, I am currently working as a med/surg nurse in MT but am considering moving to upstate NY. So, I am thinking about Syracuse, Albany or maybe Rochester. Since I will be making the move solo (and am a little terrified) I was wondering if anyone has any pertinent info on RN licensing in NY, job availability, good places to live etc?? I would appreciate any advice you can throw my way, thanks :)

    Not sure if this is much help but I live and work about 30 minutes south of Albany. I work at a small, community hospital that works for me. We do hire frequently. I believe we are hiring right now. I graduated two years ago and most of my classmates work in the Albany area. There are tons of hospitals there. Albany med is a big teaching hospital that some of my friends are happy with. There is also a VA up there that they say is a great place to work if you can get in. They don't hire much. St. Peter's is in Albany and I believe is a magnet hospital. South of me is the Rhinebeck/Red Hook area and there is a hospital there, Northern Dutchess Hospital. I have friends there who like it there. It is a beautiful area to live also.

    Thank you! I like the idea of Albany because it is close-ish to JFK and I need to travel to Ireland once or twice a year. I appreciate your reply.
