True or False: To apply for any level of inspector in Texas, an applicant must be a resident of Texas.

In Texas, one of the fundamental requirements to apply for any level of inspector, including general, plumbing, or electrical, is that the applicant must be a resident of Texas. This residency requirement is in place to ensure that inspectors are familiar with the local building codes, regulations, and conditions that can differ significantly from one state or region to another. Being a resident also helps to ensure that inspectors are readily available for inspections and can continue their education and networking within the local community. Thus, the statement is true, confirming that residency in Texas is a prerequisite to apply for inspector licensure.
