Cities With Open RN, LPN, and CNA Shifts, September 2026

Same-city posted hourly rates for all three licenses, from shifts bookable in the AllShifts app.

Updated September 22, 2026 · live AllShifts shift data

Why a three-license city is a different list

Pay-by-city tables answer "what does my license earn here." They hide a practical question: does this town have work for an RN, an LPN, and a CNA in the same week. That matters if you are a CNA in school for an LPN, an LPN in a bridge program, or two people in one household who hold different licenses and need hours in the same place.

On the shift board behind this page, 29 cities currently post all three. Together they hold 1,564 of the 3,831 open RN, LPN, and CNA slots. Hollidaysburg, PA is the deepest right now, with 376 open slots across the three licenses. Rates below are the lowest and highest hourly rates posted in that city for that license today.

Every city with all three licenses open

Each pay figure links to that city's live market page. LVN is folded into LPN. GNA, LNA, and STNA are folded into CNA. A city appears once, even when a license has more than one credential name there.

Slot counts are shifts currently posted for the next 30 days. Markets whose posted minimum is under $10/hr are left out. That filter removes placeholder rates, not real low-wage markets.

The same-city pay ladder

The conservative way to compare two licenses in one city is the bottom of the higher license minus the top of the lower one. If that number is still positive, every currently posted shift at the higher license pays more than every currently posted shift at the lower one. Across these 29 cities, that CNA-to-LPN floor gap is positive in 29 of 29, and the median gap is +$12.50/hr. The LPN-to-RN median floor gap is +$9.27/hr. In 3 of these cities the highest posted LPN rate sits above the lowest posted RN rate, so the conservative LPN-to-RN gap is negative there: Buzzards Bay, MA (−$20.46/hr), New Hampton, IA (−$7.68/hr), Bellevue, IA (−$7.68/hr). In those markets the two posted ranges overlap, so some LPN shifts pay more per hour than some RN shifts on the board the same day.

The ten deepest cities, with those floor gaps:

City-by-city pair tables, including cities that have only two of the three licenses, are in the CNA-to-LPN and LPN-to-RN bridge guides. National rate tables are in the CNA, LPN, and RN pay-by-city guides.

States where all three exist, even in different cities

14 of the 31 states with a live RN, LPN, or CNA market currently have all three licenses posted somewhere in the state: Colorado, Connecticut, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. Some of those states spread the three licenses across different cities. Use the table above when the commute has to work for more than one license. The pay-by-state guide has the full state ranges.

Working across a state line is a license question, not an app question. RNs and LPNs should read the Nurse Licensure Compact guide. CNAs should read the reciprocity guide before counting on a neighboring state's shifts.
