From employer postingsAs of 2026-08-23

You can pick historic row homes near coffee shops in The Fan or Church Hill, or quieter streets and stronger schools in Short Pump and Midlothian — the character shifts in a 10–15 minute drive.
Travel nurses
Virginia is a compact-license state, so if you already hold a compact RN license you can work here without adding a second single-state license.
