Top 10 Places for a Family Medicine Doctor to LiveCrystal Carter

You might not think about where you want to live when you’re in medical school choosing your specialty. PracticeMatch is here to help! We’ve compiled a list of the top 10 places for physicians practicing Family Medicine to live. The list includes average salaries of the specialty, the differences between the national and state salaries, and the concentration, or location quotient, of that specialty per state. We have also included a breakdown of the different degrees held by Family Medicine Doctors.

Note: The concentration of each specialty is calculated by dividing the local concentration of the industry by the national concentration of the industry. If the location quotient is greater than 1, the industry makes up a larger share of that state’s employment than it does for the entire United States.
