If you’re on the lookout for a different position in a brand new place, PracticeMatch is here to help! We’ve put together a list of the top 10 states for physicians practicing Psychiatry to live in. The list will include the average salary for that state, the differences between the national and state salaries, and the concentration, or location quotient, of the industry within that state. We have also included a breakdown of the different degrees held by Psychiatrists.
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.
