More about St Francis Hospital

Colorado Springs cost of living runs about 1% above the national price level. The state uses a flat income tax near 4.4% and participates in the nursing compact, which matters if you are bringing a compact license. Nurses who relocate often start their housing search in places like Briargate, Northeast Colorado Springs, Northgate, Northwest Colorado Springs, or Old Colorado City, where median rents commonly fall between about $1,100 and $1,900. What we cannot hand you yet are St Francis–specific pay ranges, ratios, residency structure, or unit scheduling norms—those fields are empty in the material we have. Bring those questions early when you talk with their team.
