My boy traveled to Atlanta last year to find a job for nursing since he finished his program and wanted a new fresh scene from what he's used to here in NYC.
The outcome, dude told me the jobs he was finding paid peanuts down there. He decided to not bother moving instead cause at least RN nurses are paid well here.
That's the case with many of the jobs there, the pay is lower because the cost of living is lower. I guess that's the trade off.
