Physical Therapist Career Context

Of the 50 active Physical Therapy listings this role was benchmarked against, 2% are remote, 36% have no call, 72% require no weekends.

In Texas, the Physical Therapy weighted monthly median benchmark on WeekdayDoc is ~$88k (523 salary observations; 4,735 listings), vs ~$94k nationally (10,198 salary observations; 54,378 listings). Monthly aggregates cover 2026-01-01 through 2026-10-01; these are not the modal's selected comparable-job medians.

The cost-of-living index for Texas is 97.1 (US average = 100; BEA Regional Price Parities (2024)), so the posted ~$112k midpoint carries the purchasing power of roughly $116k in an average-cost state. 57.7% of Texas clinicians report burnout symptoms in WeekdayDoc's Burnout Index (2026-01 data).

Location & Logistics

Texas has no state income tax, which can significantly increase take-home pay compared to high-tax states. At the posted ~$112k midpoint, that is roughly $4k–$8k a year versus a typical 4–7% state rate.
