El Paso is a truly binational city, deeply intertwined with Ciudad Juárez across the Rio Grande. Residents enjoy an authentic blend of Mexican and American culture, world-class Tex-Mex cuisine, access to the Chihuahuan Desert and Franklin Mountains, and an extraordinarily low cost of living.
The military (Fort Bliss/William Beaumont), healthcare (University Medical Center, Providence), and government (UTEP, City/County) anchor El Paso's economy. Manufacturing and logistics tied to the maquiladora industry across the border also provide significant employment.
Franklin Mountains State Park sits within the city limits — the largest urban state park in the US. Hueco Tanks (world-class bouldering), Guadalupe Mountains National Park, and White Sands National Park are all within a 90-minute drive.
