Lubbock, Texas - that's where you need to be! It's not as big as Dallas/Houston/San Antonio - but there's Texas Tech and Lubbock Christian University, so there's quite a bit to do here - and not near as much traffic! And it's a big medical center - biggest between Dallas and Albuquerque or Phoenix. I work at Covenant Medical Center and there are lots of opportunities there - it's the biggest with ~600 beds. There is also University Medical Center, associated with the medical school. I love it here! Give us a try!
