How much work is in Bosque County

County-wide construction activity, across all trades rather than electricians specifically. Each figure names its source and the period it covers.

MeasureValueWhat it means for you
New housing units permitted12Last full year, county-wide. 6 per 10,000 residents. Permits lead construction hiring by months, so this is the earliest honest signal of work arriving (Census Building Permits Survey).
Construction employment364Everyone working in construction in this county, all trades and office staff. Average pay $2,199 per week. BLS QCEW.
Median year homes were built1979Older stock means more repair, replacement and retrofit work, which is steadier than new build and does not stop in a downturn (Census ACS).
Net migration+23People who moved in minus people who moved out, from IRS address changes. Arrivals need housing, wiring, plumbing and heat.

Density and pipeline

71.6 licensed electricians per 10,000 residents; 2.6 apprentices per 10,000 residents. A thin pipeline against an ageing licensed base is how a shortage forms years before it shows up in wages.
