McAllen is a great place to be at. I've loved growing up here and there is always something to do. Because McAllen is a developing location, there is always something new. New restaurants, new activities, etc. I love the weather here to as it makes outdoor activities very doable and enjoyable!
McAllen, Texas is a beautiful city that is close to the Mexican border. A great place to live with many places to go for entertainment. If you are looking for a place to go out with friends there is 17th Street in Downtown McAllen with an abundance of bars and clubs down that street. If you need some medication that is affordable Mexico is close by. Our city is also about an hour drive from South Padre Island, an awesome beach where the family can go for sun and fun.
The only thing I do not like is that drivers have become less cautious when it comes to red lights. The light changes and people keep passing through the light.

Mcallen is going everyday! there is a ton of new fun places to hang out and more are being opened everyday. There are outside markets ran by local vendors, which is my favorite event, which allow you to meet new people and find rare finds
