What landscaper pay in Austin really looks like

Austin tracks the national market almost exactly. The local landscaper median of about $18.45 an hour ($38,370 a year) sits within 2% ($780) of the U.S. median of $39,150, so national salary benchmarks translate cleanly to this metro — the number you have seen quoted nationally is, give or take, what landscapers actually earn in Austin.

Pay is tightly clustered here: the 25th-to-75th-percentile band runs just $36,590 to $45,760 (BLS). A narrow spread means the metro median is a dependable expectation rather than a midpoint between wildly different jobs — there is little room above it without a credential, a specialty, or a supervisory step, so the ladder up is about the role, not just the employer.

This is a substantial local market: BLS estimates roughly 7,600 landscaper jobs across the Austin-Round Rock-San Marcos, TX metro area (a count of metro employment, not a survey of reported salaries). A deep employer base is good news for pay — it means more openings to compare side by side, more turnover creating vacancies, and more leverage to hold out for an employer at the top of the local range instead of settling for the first offer that lands.

Right now, Jobeezy is tracking 24 open landscaper jobs in Austin against the BLS $38,370 benchmark — the live listings and the employers hiring are below, so you can see which openings actually clear the metro median before you apply.

Put it together and the picture for Austin is concrete: a metro median of $38,370 with most landscapers landing between $36,590 and $45,760. The practical move is to aim for the upper half of that band. Jobeezy fit-scores local landscaper openings, surfaces the employers posting toward $45,760, and applies for you — so your time goes to the jobs that clear the Austin median, not the ones that sit under it.
