Hi there!!!

I have a question for you all.
How is the pay for nurses in Texas? I am specifically asking for the San Antonio area but info about Texas in general would also be helpfull. I am currently an RN in Arizona and am planning to later on move to San Antonio.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

New grads without shift differential start at about $18 or so. Most of the experienced RNs I know make a little over or under $30. It's very cheap to live in San Antonio.
