El Paso Reviews
Rating 3.93 out of 5 2,075 reviews
Grew up here and it’s the best place ever! There is so much history in down town to be explored and it is expanding so much every single year. I am a young Hispanic woman and I love all the Hispanic culture that is constantly around me and my home. I love seeing everyone coke together and share core values and make it a wonderful place to call home! There are so many wonderful places to explore all throughout town that I feel a lot of people don’t ordinarily think there are. There’s plenty of things to do in El Paso like go to western play land, try different restaurants, look at the lights down town, ride scooters, visit the museums, and so much more. everytime I return home from college there’s little surprises of new places to visit and it makes my experience just that much better. I’m so happy to call El Paso my home and i will forever be able to call it that!
I was born and raised in the sun city El Paso. I love this city so much because of the diversity. Being right next to the border and having Fort Bliss, El Paso has become a very diverse culture that I love to be around. I also feel El Paso is a very safe city compared to others for its size. Most people in El Paso are liberal and open minded which I consider a plus as well. I think public education is pretty good with the better districts being Ysleta and Socorro.
The only thing I wish to change about El Paso are the highways. They were built when this city had a smaller population and now with the city being much bigger, they can't hold all of the traffic. This leads to a lot of traffic in the afternoons which can be a hassle to get through.
Other than that, I am proud to be a resident of the city of the 915 and plan to live here when I am older as well!

It is a vibrant community with a deep Hispanic heritage in the people, culture, and history. Uniquely situated as the furthest major west Texas city, it is quite different from the rest of the state where the majority of the population lives in East Texas. Surrounding El Paso are many towns, small communities, communities in New Mexico, and the sister city of Juarez in Mexico. Many residents travel back and forth to access cheaper goods, and cheaper housing, where they return to work here in El Paso. Overall, it is a very safe and friendly community despite what the news say on the border. The people here will talk to you, help you, and become friends with you.
