Portland area index 105.4, where 100 is the national average.
Portland pairs a laid-back Pacific Northwest lifestyle with a thriving food, coffee, and craft-brew scene. The Willamette River splits the city into distinct east and west sides, and Forest Park offers one of the nation's largest urban wilderness escapes. It's a magnet for nurses who want outdoor access without leaving city limits.
