Virginia is a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so an active multistate license covers you here. A single-state license from elsewhere does not. The compact state list explains which states issue one.

Virginia has the 16th highest price level of the 51 states and territories the Bureau of Economic Analysis measures: 1 percent over the national average overall. The premium is concentrated in housing, at 7 percent over, while goods sit 0 percent over and services 0 percent over. That matters more than the headline number, because housing is the part a tax-free stipend is meant to cover and the rest comes out of taxed wages.
| Metro | Open contracts | Median weekly | Rent, 1 bed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Richmond | 2 | $2,302 | $1,480/mo |
| Norfolk | 1 | $2,234 | $1,400/mo |
Rent is the one-bedroom Fair Market Rent HUD publishes for that metro, which is what a housing stipend is trying to cover. The open-contract count beside each metro is the sample its median rests on, and outside the largest markets that sample is small: a median over one or two contracts is a single posting's rate rather than a market rate, so read the count first.
