It seems like Texas has become one of the most popular destinations for travel nurses lately. The pay rates look strong, but I’m worried that means the top contracts get filled fast. For those who’ve worked there recently — how early did you apply? Did you notice competition increasing, especially around major cities like Dallas, Austin, and Houston? I’d love to know if it’s better to aim for rural hospitals or stick with the big-name facilities that pay more.

I just wrapped up a contract near Dallas, and you’re right — Texas fills up fast. Some hospitals hire months in advance, while others post last-minute needs. If you want a shot at good positions, start early. Check it out to see how many listings open weekly. Smaller towns often pay slightly less, but competition is lower, and the staff tends to be more welcoming. It’s worth trading a few dollars for a smoother experience.
