How much work is in Liberty 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

Construction employment1,154Everyone working in construction in this county, all trades and office staff. Average pay $1,580 per week. BLS QCEW.
Median year homes were built1996Older stock means more repair, replacement and retrofit work, which is steadier than new build and does not stop in a downturn (Census ACS).

Density and pipeline

136.0 licensed electricians per 10,000 residents; 26.1 registered apprentices per 100 estimated workers; 4.0 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.
