Who they are
You would be joining a float pool based in Dallas (75240), moving across North Texas assignments instead of parking on one unit. Texas does not collect state income tax, and it participates in the nursing licensure compact, which can matter if you are relocating or already carry a compact license.
More about North Texas Float Pool
Nearby systems such as Medical City Dallas, Baylor Scott & White Health, and Texas Health Resources are also hiring in the same metro if you want comparison points. Dallas runs roughly 3% above the national cost of living. People who already live here tend to decide neighborhoods by commute, schools, budget, and feel; housing is still often described as relatively competitive next to other large metros, with the usual tradeoffs on utilities and everyday expenses.
