Where are the best places for nurses to work in the usa?
I have recently finished my nursing degree in scotland and there are many factors that are influencing my move. lack of jobs, job prospects, housing prices and quality of living being the main ones. I have looked into many places and my top three are, boston, phoenix and austin. what I cannot find is a realistic view of what it would be like to live in any of these places. people either seem to hate them with a passion or love them. from what I have found, people from boston are snobby, people from phoenix don't like immigrants and people from austin are white trash. can anybody help with the best place to move in an un biased way? ok just to say this is not my view of these people, this is what I have been able to find out about the people from the internet. and as for a long wait im planning on moving in 3 years so I have plenty of time to get a visa.

There IS a shortage of nurses in the US, but in order to work here, you'll need a work visa, which an employer must sponsor you for. And, coming from the UK, there will be a LONG wait to get one, given the demand for people wanting to emigrate from the UK. BTW - Your use of stereotypical generalizations is an indication that you are uninformed. People are people, wherever you live - some are nice and some aren't.

LOL "people from austin are white trash"! Madam, nothing could be further from the truth! Austin is considered the most liberal city in Texas, and is probably one of the most diverse around!

Actually it is exactly true that people from Boston are snobby and people from Phoenix don't like immigrants. The reason why people from Phoenix don't like immigrants is because there are a lot of retirees (i.e., older white people who didn't learn about "political correctness" - who think making off-the-cuff racist statements are par for the course). The reason why Boston is snobby is because all the cool people moved to Austin. And why are you asking now if you are planning on moving in 3 years? That's crazy. Also, degreed nursing professionals are in high enough demand that you can get a special priority work visa. So you can probably move to Austin in the next few months. Even though you are naive about our culture, we welcome you, because we are friendly. And isn't it true that Scotland and the North of England are the "white trash" parts of the UK?
