What to Know When Pursuing Nursing Jobs in Texas

Curious about your potential patient base? Nearly one quarter of the Texas population is under age 18, and just under 14% is age 65 and older. You must possess excellent cultural competence skills if you hope to succeed in Texas nurse jobs. Just over 17% of residents were born outside of the United States. Around 77% of residents are White, 40% are Hispanic or Latino, 14% are Black, 6% are Asian, and slightly above 2% identify as two or more races. More than 35% of people speak a language other than English at home. If you’re multilingual, include that on your nursing resume.

According to one survey, Texas is home to the second largest LGBTQ+ population in the country — only California’s is larger. However, this number could be undercounted, as people may be afraid to disclose their sexual orientation, especially in more rural parts of Texas. If you have experience working with LGBTQ+ patients, that might be an excellent addition to your resume as well.

Texas nursing jobs are available in a variety of roles. Here are some of the sought-after opportunities in the Lone Star state:

Working in Texas

The educational services, healthcare, and social assistance category represents the largest portion of the state’s workforce, at 21.7%. Texas also has a relatively high job vacancy rate for nursing professionals: 16.4% for RNs, 21.5% for LVNs, and 23.8% for NPs.

Whether you’re seeking entry-level nursing jobs or are seeking an advanced role, Texas is a promising place for a nursing career, with some esteemed hospitals and medical systems. You can search nursing job openings in Texas facilities such as:

If it’s post-acute jobs you’re looking for, you can check out an online database of residential and home or community-based long-term care providers, including assisted living facilities, daytime care programs, hospice services, and more.

Wondering how long it might take you to get to work? The average one-way commute time in TX is roughly 27 minutes — right in line with the country’s average. The vast majority of Texans (72%) drive by themselves, followed by 14% of people who work from home and nearly 11% who carpool.

For many people, raising a family and working a job is a juggling act. If you could use a hand, the Texas Child Care Connection can match you with options that meet your needs. The Texas Pet Sitters Association can help you find people to look after your pets while you’re at work.

Living in Texas

Texas is divided into seven main regions, each of which offers a variety of amenities. For example, in the Prairies and Lakes region, you get a mix of the nightlife and dining scenes in Dallas and Fort Worth, plus charming small towns located further south. True to its name, the Piney Woods region is home to four national forests, sweeping meadows, and Big Thicket National Preserve. The Gulf Coast combines 350 miles of shoreline with the big-city sights of Houston, Galveston, and beyond. You’re all but certain to find a region in Texas that checks all of your boxes.

When you think of Texas traditions, you’ll have to include more than just rodeos and ranchers. Texas is also home to a wide variety of popular events all year long, from Fiesta San Antonio and Viva! El Paso to SXSW in Austin and the state fair in Dallas. On any given week, you can expect celebration of arts and culture, food, sports, and/or music to be happening somewhere in the state.

The annual climate in Texas depends on the region. For instance, temperatures in the north and in the south of the state can vary by as much as 20 degrees during the winter. Summers tend to be hot no matter where you are. If you’re not a fan of snow, good news — it rarely snows in Texas. But get ready for rain, as annual rainfall is around 36 inches.

The cost of living in Texas is nearly 6% lower than the rest of the country, with house and rental prices at 12% and 10% lower, respectively. Another upside: There’s zero income tax.
