Rucker Elementary School

If you are coming from out of state, two Texas facts will show up in your first paycheck and your license file: there is no state income tax, and Texas is a compact-license state. Houston's cost of living sits at 98.6, about 1% below the national price level. Nurses who relocate here often talk about cheaper housing than the coasts, then about traffic, schools, and whether to rent before they buy. We cannot put this campus next to a number. Nearby hospital medians in our data are $32.69 an hour at MD Anderson, $35.45 at Baylor St. Luke's, and $41.82 at Harris Health — those are their figures, not Rucker's. Plan the drive early. Houston is widely described as not easy to get around, and nurses here often try to keep commutes near or under about 15 minutes.
