Physical Therapist Career Context

In Texas, the Physical Therapy weighted monthly median benchmark on WeekdayDoc is ~$88k (557 salary observations; 2,167 listings), vs ~$93k nationally (11,876 salary observations; 27,060 listings). Monthly aggregates cover 2026-01-01 through 2026-09-01; 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 ~$67k midpoint carries the purchasing power of roughly $69k in an average-cost state. 57.7% of Texas clinicians report burnout symptoms in WeekdayDoc's Burnout Index (2026-01 data).

Physical Therapy pay on WeekdayDoc is down 3.6% vs. the prior quarter (through Aug 2026).

Texas has no state income tax, which can significantly increase take-home pay compared to high-tax states. At the posted ~$67k midpoint, that is roughly $3k–$5k a year versus a typical 4–7% state rate.
