Our local nursing job market is robust and ever-evolving. Current estimates indicate that there are about 1,200 registered nurses active in Lilburn, and with an expected increase in healthcare demands due to an aging population, we anticipate that around 160 new RNs will be necessary over the next five years. The demand for travel nursing is gaining momentum; while not as dominant as in larger cities, we do see fluctuations primarily in the summer months when our local hospitals experience a flattening of their regular staff due to vacation season. The per diem job market is active as well, as hospitals and clinics often seek flexibility to fill gaps swiftly, further enriching the various employment opportunities available. Notably, our city has about eight major healthcare facilities, including notable employers like Emory Healthcare and Northside Hospital, contributing to the area’s overall healthcare ecosystem. Comparing Lilburn to nearby cities such as Lawrenceville and Snellville reveals that while these cities offer similar employment opportunities, they tend to have slightly lower salary ranges, with estimates around $62,000 to $76,000 in Lawrenceville for instance.
