You mentioned you have CRNA friends that own their own practice. I’d like to see a video going into explaining more about that.
Sure, I'll see if I can have them on as a guest.
^^^^^yes!!!!
I'm a travel nurse and i live in a bus. So when i see the cost of these sticks and bricks houses I'm just shocked. Don't forget, you pay the principle, property tax, hoa, interest on the loan, and usually you have to pay for upgrades. 😳 Im SO happy in my bus. Thanks for these videos. Thinking about trying for crna school in a couple years and there's great info here.
Thank you for your videos!
Glad you like them!
Montana! Or anywhere that is very cold! I love the cold weather, outdoor activities, and the less crowded it is! The better!
I like your videos! And you’re right, California has turned into a mess with those crazy tax raises and those animals on the streets.
Great video man! I’m from Memphis, I would want to be a CRNA in California, I’m gonna be a Honorary Anesthesiologist soon, since it was hard for me to go to college to be a Anesthesiologist after I graduated high school in 08, I’m 31
Good day Dr. Bolt !!
Cherrio, good chap!
Really enjoy your content and I’m seriously looking into the CRNA route.... Was it common knowledge that CRNA school’s require O Chem or other upper level chemistry courses as an admissions requirement? I can’t seem to find a definitive answer on this from admissions departments. Thanks Bolt!
Thanks Braden. Most programs do require those courses.
I'm good with rural areas. I've heard regardless of the state there's more money there...perhaps it limits what you're allowed to do both for fun and at work. I hate the cold but for what Wyoming is paying, I can crank the thermostat to 80
Good points. Get you a bubble suit with heating.
Interesting content. I thought for sure north carolina and utah would have been near bottom. One other thing people need to understand when considering these statistics, which you alluded to in your video, is the concept of 'how far your dollar goes' in any given state. For example, I live in PA in a rural town and I'll make about 180k annually without overtime or bonus. Pretty average salary. But since it's rural, I've got a 2000 square foot house with an acre of land and minimal neighbors for 230k. A similar home in california or oregon would probably cost I don't know 1.5 million? And obviously without the commensurate rise in salary. So to those of you researching where you wanna work, salary is only *half* of the equation, the other half being cost of living in a given location. Overall living here will be much better for my wife and I, financially speaking, then living in a higher salary state alone, given the massive increase in expenses in many of those states.
Several of the states you listed though, montana, wyoming, the dakotas, iowa, you can make a killing there because the salary is high and the cost of living is so low too. That's best combination. In any case, it's a 'big picture' kind of thing where you have to take into consideration all factors before accepting a position. Good content Bolt!
Great points and that's why I tried to touch on how far you money takes you in a certain place. The old saying of location, salary and autonomy, pick two of the three rings true when selecting a place to live and work as a CRNA.
Hi Dr.Bolt, thanks for the info! Do you know anything about the salary in the tristate area in the northeast? The average is pretty high too when I looked them up.
For up in that market I would say average seems to be around $180-200k. This is for a 40 hour workweek of course and not factoring in call.
In Northwest Arkansas the average seems to be $187.5K as a base contract.
The next metro area about an hour south seem to be offering $250K 1099 contracts.
Not bad at all for that lower cost of living!
Hello, I believe I remember you saying you went to union in Jackson if I’m not mistaken for crna school. If you could, what would be helpful advice to get into their program or things that they would like. I’m just curious since I stay in Memphis and Union is an option for the future.
DM me on IG. You're right I did graduate from Union University.
I have shadowed a few CRNAs here in North Alabama. I had one tell me their salary is well over 200k a year. Didn’t specify exactly how much so I’m assuming 250k. They told me that their salary was about average for the area. Combining with the very low cost of living here, there’s not much that a 200k salary wouldn’t get you!
You bring up the good point that a CRNA or any provider in general can earn well over the average if they are good at negotiation or do 1099 contract work. This list mostly consists of traditional W2 average salary.
Great video
Thanks for the visit
You flashed a picture of Salt Lake City when referencing North Dakota, FYI.... The Wasatch mountains would be a welcomed addition to the dakotas for certain! 😂
It was google search photos, whoops.
I would be interested to see what info you have about Texas. From what I have gathered it seems like a good place to live despite the higher than average property tax.
From what I've gathered, and lived there, I agree with you.
Lol. The 47 bedroom complex in North Dakota is as much as a decent house here in Denver. Insane!
Can you do top paying cities too?
Good idea!
I thought Massachusetts would be on here I'm pretty sure they pretty well too
With the incomes per state for the crna, how is the weekly hours factored into the pay? What is the regular hours vs overtime hours, & how many hours in a week. Can you also go into benefits & work life balance with what a typical week looks like?
This would be based on a typical work schedule which is 40 hours a week in America.
@@BoltCRNA in your experience does the 40 hour work week reflect your work week as a crna?
I live in Tennessee and if I do end up being a crna I think I would stay here bc I love it here and pay is still really good and low cost of living
Home are much cheaper than Florida. In addition, just like Florida, TN does not pay state taxes.
I grew up in Chattanooga and trained near Memphis. Shoutout to Tennessee but the humid hot summers and icy cold winters wore out their welcome with me.
@@BoltCRNA I can deal with heat. Been in Miami and Caribbean most of my life. The exception was the 3 years I lived in Montreal, Canada. Sooo, no. Thank you to any place that snows or temp drops below 30s at night.
Good video
Thanks
Only thing I disagree with is cost of living in Oregon. Yes, no sales tax but income tax is pretty much the same as CA. Rent is pretty pricey as well, at least in Portland or Eugene. I've lived quite a few places around the country and OR is prob the highest cost of living. Eastern OR is cheaper... but there's nothing there
Oregon has a ton of income tax! And Portland’s homeless are quite prevalent. Otherwise the weather and land is wonderful.
Taxes and homeless is the tale of the West Coast.
I lived in Oregon for 8 years - beautiful, but I NEEDED SOME SUN!😎🌞. Seasonal depression is real & a couple of months of nice weather just wasn’t enough.
I live in Texas.. born and raised! If I do end up becoming CRNA, is it wise to stay or move?
Live wherever you like, but I've know CRNAs who really enjoy living in Texas.
Commenting for the algorithm
Somebody gets it!
Best comment ☝🏿
I’m from MA but I am on the south coast, on the border of MA/RI. I’ll look into but I am sure they make a bit more. Taxes aren’t the best but California is certainly worse. I don’t know how you can live in California man. I feel like they take all your money man! Terrible! I like Texas
Of the top paying states, which ones allow independent CRNA practice outside of California? Thanks!
CRNAs are licensed as independent anesthesia providers in all 50 states. There are some insurance reimbursement requirements in some states which uses wording like "supervision" but this isn't related to our license to practice independently.
Thanks for the clarification. I live in North Carolina, and CRNAs here always have an MD behind them lol, when they are intubating on the floor( in my hospital).
Are these numbers without any calls, a typical 40 hour work week?
Right, these are base hours, no extras included, no OT or call, no benefits packages, etc.
Do they have traveling CRNA?
It's not called travel CRNA but as a provider you can take short term locum tenens contracts that are similar.
Massachusetts?
Do you find it rewarding? The job not the cash.
"Oregon is beautiful!" This man has never been to Eastern Oregon. Fun video!
I live just south of there but the pics look nice!
@@BoltCRNA Oregon tbe racist state with a bunch of white supremacists and judgemental people..
NC wasn’t in list? 🥲
