Want to Be a Teacher Here Are the Top 25 Best Places for Educators in the U.S. [Infographic]

Want to Be a Teacher Here Are the Top 25 Best Places for Educators in the U.S. Infographic Before I started my illustrious career as a recruitment/hiring blogger, I was a teacher in Hartford, CT. (Full disclosure I was not a very good teacher, hence why I didnt last long.) According to a new analysis from personal finance tech company SmartAssest, I was lucky enough to be teaching in the ninth-best metro area in the nation, where the average salary for a K-12 teacher is $70,786. bedrngnis bad at all, and I totally believe that Hartford is a great place to teach even if I myself am better suited for a desk job.Despite the critical value of teachers in society, the teaching profession has had a rough time over the last few years. Smart Asset reports that the number of K-12 teachers in the U.S. grew by just half a percent between 2013 and 2014, a fraction of the overall rate of jobs growth across al l occupations (1.9 percent). Likewise, income growth for teachers was below average.In large part, the stalling of the profession is due to falling numbers of students, SmartAsset says. Since 2009, the number of people below the age of 18 in the U.S. has dropped by 1.2 percent.That being said, there are still a few places where education is a thriving field. By analyzing average salaries, total employment gains, average graduation rates, and monthly housing costs in more than 400 metro areas in the U.S., SmartAsset was able to put together the following list of the 25 best places to be a teacher. Check out the full infographic below, and read SmartAssets in-depth analysis over on the companys website.
