Why We Built This
Nurses talk about pay all the time — but the information is scattered, inconsistent, or straight-up wrong. We deserve real transparency. RN Pay Map collects what nurses actually make and puts it all in one place, anonymously, so everyone can compare pay across the country without the guesswork.
​

Not guesses. Not recruiter numbers. Just actual pay from the nurses living it.
​

Crowdsourced and anonymous
No personal information collected. Ever.
