Pulaski, Virginia is a friendly, affordable mountain town on the New River with a compact, walkable downtown and direct access to outdoor recreation—hiking, kayaking, mountain biking, the New River Trail and nearby Claytor Lake—so multi‑week therapy contracts feel like a restful, active base rather than a dead-end assignment.
For livelier nights and bigger-city amenities you’re a short drive from college‑town energy in Blacksburg (Virginia Tech) and the arts, breweries and medical centers of Roanoke, giving you peaceful local living plus option-packed weekends.
