Grand Junction area index 95.5, where 100 is the national average.
Grand Junction sits on Colorado's Western Slope, where high-desert mesas meet vineyard-dotted valleys. Nurses drawn to outdoor recreation will find easy access to Colorado National Monument and Fruita's mountain-biking trails, plus a slower pace than the Front Range. It's a practical choice for those who want affordable living paired with weekend adventures.
