My wife is entertaining temporary job offers at the hospitals in Monroe and in Federal Way. We’re from Alabama. Any advice?

As the title states, my wife has gotten 2 job offers as a travel nurse in those 2 areas. Clearly those are very different types of places and I’ll be honest- I’ve never even been to your state. But I’m looking to try the PNW for a while and these opportunities popped up. If given the option would you live in either of these 2 places? If she accepts the offer in Monroe we’d probably just try to find a place there, but if she accepts the one in Federal Way, is it worth living elsewhere and commuting?

Before anyone complains about transplants: I’m not sure how long I’m looking to stay (best guess: a year or so), these just seem like good opportunities for my wife and she’s excited about them so no, I won’t be buying up all your houses.

Edit: changed PNY to PNW… sorry, my Buffalo is showing

2nd edit: sorry for not giving much in the way of preferences and whatnot. Honestly we don’t have that many, other than being somewhere safe. As long as I can get outside somewhat easily whether it be a park or trail I’m happy. We’re pretty boring people. Our main preference and goal is to leave Alabama and discover the rest of the US.
