Nurse is the most important NPC you must have at the start of the game. For a small fee, he will help you heal completely.

When you fight the Eye of Cthulhu, having a Nurse will really help you so you don't die in this fight.

When you are strong enough, place the Nurse and Arms Dealer in the Desert. Next, add Steampunker when you have changed to Hardmode.

The sea is the furthest biome from your location, so it will take quite a long time to reach it. NPCs that are suitable to be placed here are Merchant, Angler, and Pirate.

The Merchant is one of the NPCs you will meet for the first time but you don't need to immediately move him here.

The Angler itself will be at sea from the start, so you can immediately make it home without having to relocate.

When the game changes to Hardmode, add a Pirate and you can buy the Pylon you need.

Glowing Mushroom Biome

Building a house in this biome is a bit difficult because you have to remove all the existing walls with a hammer and create a flat piece of land to place the house.

After successfully building a house, place three NPCs, namely Clothier, Demolitionist, and Tax Collector to live here.
