Travel Nursing:
California

When it comes to housing for travel nurses in California, you have two options: 

1. You can take advantage of agency-based housing where we find you housing and set everything up for you. 
2. You can opt to receive a housing stipend and find your own housing.

If you choose to find your own housing, your recruiter can also offer insight into where past travel nurses have stayed and can even help connect you with other travel nurses who are looking for roommates to save money. 

While we recommend reading reviews and listening to the experiences of other travel nurses, we also recommend speaking with multiple agencies. It is important to figure out not only what benefits are offered to you as a travel nurse but how much support you will receive throughout your travel nurse assignment in California. 

The best travel nurse agencies in California will be communicable and responsive to your needs. We’re confident, that after connecting with other agencies, you’ll see why so many nurses trust our team with their career and why we’re a better solution for most nurses. For example, we offer 24/7 access to your recruiter for support. 

San Diego, San Francisco, and Los Angeles are very popular travel nursing destinations in California due to their nearby attractions and West Coast lifestyle. Cities in the Central Valley like Bakersfield and Fresno are also desirable locations due to their lower cost of living. 

In California, there is a little bit of something for everyone. If you love the outdoors, there is a surplus of outdoor sports, beaches, lakes, rivers, mountains, and forests to enjoy. Many travel nurses also enjoy visiting attractions like Disneyland and Universal Studios, as well as aquariums, world-class museums, gardens, and more. California cities like Hollywood and San Francisco have a thriving nightlife scene, with trendy bars and clubs.
