Current Resident: I love the community and safe atmosphere it provides. It is a great town to eat at the diner, restaurant, and farmers market via walking and even on a bike.

I am impressed how he town is growing into a more urban population. The creation of new stores are making the life of the majority of the residents more affordable since, know there is no need to waste gasoline when wanting to go to a neighbor store. The creation of clothing stores, fast food restaurants, drug stores and even a GYM that opened this year has facilitated the life of the residents of Palmhurst.

Current Resident: South Padre Island is a gorgeous little island to live on at a lower cost than other tourist/vacation islands. It is still a bit expensive to live here, especially given the housing market at the moment and the interest of landlords and homeowners to sell or rent to SpaceEx employees. It is pretty bike-friendly here and most of the restaurants are fantastic especially Kelly's Irish Pub. The beach is lovely and a trip here is an all-around good bang for your buck. There are also a few cafes that make some of the best espresso-based drinks you will ever have and have lovely staff members. As a resident, things do get a bit more chaotic during spring break and summer break. Most locals stay off the roads and stay at home. I'd say that the Rio Grand Valley is pretty lucky to have this gem of an island that attracts visitors from all over the nation AND the world. The weather is also cooler than the inland when it is hot and warmer when the inland is cold! It's great!... Read 8 reviews

Current Resident: The city of Mission is a safe and quiet town. It is also one of the cheapest places to live in the US, and affordability can be incredibly charming! Our main streets and highways are well-funded and clean, and they are always under some new reconstruction project happening. We also have great shopping districts. However, there is not much in the entertainment department for the younger generations here, and nothing promotes walkability. There are a couple of locations for all to enjoy, such as movie theaters and the occasional skating rink, but I would like to see a more diverse environment with a push for public transportation. Placing more focus on these things could be a great start! Overall, Mission is an amazing place to live for all the things they have to offer, but like any place, improvement is always welcome....

Current Resident: Edinburg serves as the entry into the Rio Grande Valley as it is in the north central area of Hidalgo County. Edinburg is a big town that has excellent local businesses, food and events. Being so close to the border with Mexico, and also being in the north of the Valley, Edinburg is a melting pot of Mexican, American, and Texan food. Most foods here are combinations of each culture, like barbecue with some "pico de gallo", which is a mixture of avocado, tomatoes, serrano peppers, and cilantro. Edinburg is a relatively cheap town to live in, being kept in balance with the growing of neighboring McAllen and the the dangers of the Mexican cartel.... Read 413 reviews

Current Resident: My overall experience in Harlingen, Texas is that it's quite small, and doesn't have a lot of shops like big cities, but it's really dear to my heart because I grew up here. I learned to love the small town feel and how everybody is always connected. And I like that we are next to South Padre Island so you can go to the beach in christmas time which is quite funny. But I love this town a lot, and I hope Harlingen can still grow to be a bit bigger so that my friends and I can hang out in bigger stores and malls.... Read 262 reviews

Current Resident: For most of my life I have spent it living in Brownsville. Downtown is where I have all my treasured memories are at, living with my grandparents and going on late night strolls with them around those streets will always be close to my heart. I know many people just like that have spent their whole life here that are tired of the same old things, but i strongly disagree. I believe that Brownsville is growing and changing for the better. As a child you don't realize the dangers that are lurking around you, but as you get older you begin to see the ugliness that's around you. Now that I'm much older I remember how unsafe our environment was and how poor our city is. Without a doubt in my mind Brownsville is so much better than what it used to be. With the arrival of well known CEO and chief technology officer of SpaceX, our city has definitely gotten more diverse and tourism is at it's highest its ever been. I'm really proud of where I come from and how much this city has grown.... Read 970 reviews

Current Resident: Laguna Vista is a perfect little town to have a home in. With few businesses in the town, a large park, and a very good family oriented activities planned throughout the year, this town is good for family living. While the town is slightly secluded from industry, it pays off for the beauty you get to live near, with a 10 minute drive to the Laguna Atascosa. The commute is not bad either, with the main farm to market road that runs through it, you can head straight to hwy100, which is a straight run from South Padre Island to I69E and all the towns in between....

Being a resident upon this town is incredible because of all the community events held consistently. There are several ways our leaders give back to our community. Most if not all events always have entertaining activities for kids of all ages. Adults as well get some time to relax knowing their kids are safe within this town.

Current Resident: I like that Elsa is close community and that joins together in times of need. It is a small community with near by schools. We are very lucky to have an HEB as well as a Walmart. It is peaceful and welcoming. People from other smaller cities such as Raymondville and La Villa also come to Elsa for their shopping needs. Even though it is considered a small city, it is well equipped with tire shops to pharmacies. Elsa also provides opportunities for small business owners to grow and empower the community. It continue to grows and provide job related opportunities as well for the residents. If you like the city or country living, Elsa provides both areas of choice, while still being able to be a few minutes away from the shopping areas. Elsa is a midpoint location for many other visitors and they enjoy our local and fast food restaurants after a game or an event.

Los Fresnos has provided me with so many opportunities it is a blessing. However, since the town is so small and is near a low income status location it is dificult for money to flow through Los Fresnos and just if students like me could become more knowledge about scholarships and even just be aware of federal aid in aquiring assets such as money; I believe Los Fresnos can become a better and more flourished city with a steady flow of assets....
