How to prepare and behave

Know your rights as a candidate and an employee:

The city

The job is in Dallas, TX. Below is what the official statistics say about living and working there.

How Dallas compares. Among the 120 largest places in Texas, Dallas is #3 by population, #112 for homeownership (#1 = highest), #42 for remote work (#1 = most), #46 for college degrees (#1 = most). Its county, Dallas County, is #8 of 254 counties for average pay ($89,284).

The place in numbers

Dallas has 1,307,930 residents (ACS 2020–2024), about 4.3% of the population of Texas. It covers 340 square miles of land, which works out to roughly 3,850 people per square mile. The median age is 33.4, 6% younger than the state median (33.4 against 35.6).

Housing

The median gross rent is $1,472 a month (rent plus utilities), 5% above the state median ($1,472 against $1,403). Over a year that is 25.0% of the median household income. US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $320,700, which is 4.5 times the median household income ($70,518). 42.4% of households own their home, 32% below the state average (42.4% against 62.6%). A low ownership share points to a rental-heavy market with more apartments and shorter stays.

Work and pay

The Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX metropolitan area has 4,049,800 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $51,440 a year, about the same as the national median ($51,440 against $50,980). The biggest occupation groups are office and administrative support (490,190 jobs, median $47,080); transportation and material moving (423,430 jobs, median $44,570); management (379,320 jobs, median $128,140). The area is most specialised in computer and mathematical (1.4 times) and management (1.3 times), where the share of workers is above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($128,140) and computer and mathematical ($121,440). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of Dallas County was 4.2%. 68.6% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in Dallas County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 66.6% drive alone, 2.1% use public transit, 2.1% walk, 15.8% work from home. 14.1% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 17% below the state average (14.1% against 16.9%).

People and education

38.2% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 13% above the state share (38.2% against 33.8%). 23.4% of residents were born outside the United States, 33% above the state share (23.4% against 17.6%). The poverty rate is 16.7%, 21% above the state rate (16.7% against 13.8%).

Climate

The warmest month is Aug, averaging 86°F (30.1°C), and the coolest is Jan at 44°F (6.4°C). About 921 mm (36 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; May is the wettest month (116 mm) and Jul the driest (55 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.

Nearby cities to compare

Closest cities in this guide: Mesquite (11 miles, similar rent); Garland (11 miles, rent 11% higher); Farmers Branch (11 miles, rent 27% higher); Irving (13 miles, rent 10% higher). Rent differences are against Dallas; use the Compare tab to put any two cities side by side.
