What is the wage for union carpenter journeymen in dallas texas?
Texas is a right-to-work state, so unions do not have the teeth that they do in other states. You will not find union rates here, especially with the predominance of workers who will take less than going rate (trying to be politically correct here) and just the large illegal workforce in general. While you will find a lower cost of living here, the pay will be much less. With the right skillset, you might be able to find work at a higher level or apprentice as a builder with one of the many homebuilders in the area. The economy here is still very good.
