Hi Ryan! Great to see your interest in the healthcare field - it is often repeated that ultimately all we have is our health and wellness, so you are thinking about a valuable field of work to society.

Northern VA has excellent pay although the cost of living is higher, but living a little farther out from you work is normal here and it lowers the cost of living which makes that paycheck a good one. My neighbor is a charge nurse in an ER and she makes well into six figures.
