Thanks for a tour of a city where I was born, grew up and worked for 57 years; then to move away in 2009 to East Texas. The place has changed quite a lot since moving away. The only thing to remain the same is the colorful culture, the warm people who live there and the great food. The climate can’t be beat. Lots of history there; a gem of a city.
Nice video man. El Paso gets alot of hate, but you can't beat the weather, good food, good people and the best hospitality..And hey...We may not be hip like Austin and we don't have a beautiful Riverwalk like San Antonio, but at least our power grid is reliable 😉.....
Good food??? 🤣🤣🤣 there's a severe lack of good food .. nor variety.... if your taste buds are endless fast food or mediocre Mexican food and chicken wing joints on every street then el paso is for you. . Even the BBQ and steakhouses are a let down. And the sushi here..what a joke.. el paso is seriously slacking in the food scene.. people are nice tho..
weather??? its either hot or dusty as fuck outside 😂😂😂😂and the food is ok.. not *that* good lol. Its growing but shit, just here till I graduate than im out xD
The mountains are beautiful, no where else can the Mexican food even come close to comparing, it is hot but there's no tornados, no hurricanes, no earthquakes, it can get cold at night being a desert, but the days are sunny, not rainy all the time, it's lovely. There's no place like it❤
So glad you made a video of our city. El Paso is a gem that most overlook. It has it’s on special type of beauty, and you captured a lot of it. Good work amigo!
Hi, thanks for taking me to Scenic drive where I visited many times when I was in Fort Bliss .50 years years ago I was a military exchange student to Fort Bliss from Japan, I was there totally about 2 years. I was already retired and with my friend we are thinking of Visiting to EL Paso before go to Heave Hahaha!!. Muchas Gracias
I have been to El Paso Texas once upon the time and I have nice memories. It was real pleasure to watch your video till the end.. Thank you for sharing. Regards from Slovenia.
Great video, from 2015-2018 I would travel to ELP 3-4x a year for work. It is truly a hidden gem and some of the nicest people live in an around the city. Lovely landscapes, incredible food, a lot of sun! a great little baseball stadium and the downtown was recently renovated. Miss my trips there and hoping to get back down there very soon to see all the great friends I made down in the Sun City. Thanks for this great video, really took me back and now can't wait to go back.
Coming from the desert part of California. I want to move out to a desert city because I’m used to dry heat and I absolutely hate humid heat and El Paso is dry heat and it’s cheaper
Like all those street shops EL Paso looks off the hook,quiet,clean,not too crowded,only i don't speak spanish so i don't think i could live there,but wish could in a way.
Downtown area has been pretty vacant for some years now (although there is some investment) but east side notably is getting bigger by the years. El Paso has it’s own vibe that you certainly don’t find in some other cities.
@@natenate88 that isn't true. but i'm from el paso, and i gotta say, this video does make it seem really boring. i was actually watching because i was thinking of maybe moving back, but this video really doesn't make me want to.
Greetings from Las Cruces, New Mexico. El Paso is just an hour away. El Paso is far and away the most friendly city in Texas. Their airport is absolutely gorgeous!
You read my mind!! I’ve been wondering when you would come to El Paso!! I know you’re not a fan of Texas, Jeff (I won’t hold that against you 😉) I think it’s gorgeous. I live in San Antonio but would love to live in El Paso and be close to New Mexico and Arizona while enjoying the low cost of living and benefits of being a Texas resident. So, what are your thoughts on El Paso?
I like Texas. I think El Paso more New Mexico than Texas considering how far it away it is from all other parts of Texas. 7 hour drive to San Antonio. Overall El Paso is cool.
Seems nice, looks better than San Antonio tx. I moved back to S.A 2 years ago, I didn't like it then and still don't like it now. I'm thinking I might move to El Paso, I like how close it is to AZ and NM. I'm more used to the southwest culture than South Texas culture and el paso seems like its more southwest than Texas. I'm I right? I hope so.
Facts I live in Albuquerque and and I'm considering moving to El Paso. But Albuquerque to be fair is a better version of Pueblo Colorado and Las Cruces.
Lots of history. Once correction though, Ysleta was settled by the Tiguas in the 1680's and they are the oldest community in Texas. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
This is a nice guide to downtown El Paso. But there is a lot more to El Paso than the downtown area. You missed such wonderful places, such as the iconic Franklin Mountains, Chamizal, national Park, the El Paso, Rose garden, Fort Bliss, the El Paso zoo,the Fountains at Farah… I don’t feel the core of downtown really represents what El Paso truly is all about. Nevertheless, great video!
There is a bunch of swag here in El Paso along time ago there use to be alot of cotton fields here in El Paso El Paso also has lots of parks my name is Daniel Rodriguez I was born and raised here in El Paso and lived my entire here in El Paso which is 38 years
Living is expensive but the pay is much much higher then elpaso. I’m from elpaso and live north of Dallas You have to find a way to get your own spot which is hard for the first couple years here usually
Cant wait for the Midwest vids- you should consider making vids of the travel going place to place with the people you’re with- seems like that would be fun
I heard that there is a restaurant in Amirleo, Texas where if you can finish a 74 pound steak, you can have it for free. Maybe you should try to do that.
I also live in El Paso. Been here 2 yrs from Minneapolis. I love the weather, but its really hard to meet people here. Everybody family already knows each other.
Out in the west Texas town of El Paso I fell in love with a Mexican ho Sometimes we held hands as we walked together To buy marlboros rojos at the sto Usually it is hot as hell in El Paso But sometimes it's cold and it might even snow!
You can also watch our Dallas Texas travel guide ua-cam.com/video/zZsH2whij64/v-deo.html
ah yes i am looking at a guide of my own town
Pretty shitty town lol
@@natenate88 Wtf did El Paso piss in your Cheerios? You're all in your feels all over this comment section. El Paso doesn't want you either.
Lmao me too
There's nothing like el paso❤
Shit town

Preach! We are moving to El Paso from rural northeast Texas this fall. We love it there, and you couldn't pay me to move to Austin or San Antonio.

If you can look past the non existent job opportunities and lack of upward mobility, actually not a bad place to live.
The mountains are beautiful, no where else can the Mexican food even come close to comparing, it is hot but there's no tornados, no hurricanes, no earthquakes, it can get cold at night being a desert, but the days are sunny, not rainy all the time, it's lovely. There's no place like it❤
El Paso, Texas is full of culture. We have seen the city growth and it keeps getting prettier!! Greetings from Chihuahua, Mexico!!
Former El Pasoan here, you guys don't know how good you have it there in the Sun City. I miss that place!❤
The view from Scenic Drive at night is beautiful.
My mom loved it.
Hard not to notice the complete lack of foot traffic.
i used to live in el paso and it wasn't like that! creepy!! but maybe because of covid? :/
COVID is what stopped all the foot traffic, but it will rebound again.
When you see that star on the mountain, you know you're home 🌌
True
So glad you made a video of our city. El Paso is a gem that most overlook. It has it’s on special type of beauty, and you captured a lot of it. Good work amigo!
A dull unpolished gem with little to no value at all.
@@natenate88 who hurt you?
I got to live there in the mid 90s. Awesome place

This video was so helpful. I'll be visiting El Paso, TX later on this month.
Wow, what a clean downtown! I would love to go back!
Downtown is hella dirty what you talking about lmao he just recorded the most presentable parts.
@@ezequielmartinez3582 Well, it can't be any worse than Santa Ana, CA.
@@elfulano5884 California is just a shit hole overall lol you wouldn't expect anything other than that since it is a blue state.
@@ezequielmartinez3582 its prolly the filter
Best videos on America. Love from Pakistan

Lot's of history and culture in this town.
Home away from home!💜 It's grown so much since I've left! 💜
Love this place! Hi from Switzerland.

I am from Juárez but I consider El Paso my hometown!
Greetings from Las Cruces, New Mexico. El Paso is just an hour away. El Paso is far and away the most friendly city in Texas. Their airport is absolutely gorgeous!
I love my hometown!
Nice tour of the city. Thank you. Not a lot of people walking around though, looks empty.
i'm from el paso, and i noticed this too. not how i remember it at all! maybe it's because of covid..?

I like Texas. I think El Paso more New Mexico than Texas considering how far it away it is from all other parts of Texas. 7 hour drive to San Antonio. Overall El Paso is cool.
It's literally relax and is only 5 hrs away form phoenix AZ Mexico is down the road and las cruces is next door but more is yet to come to el paso.
Nice pick on the music, Jeff. I could listen to that floaty-dreamy mex-western stuff all day, so chill and regionally special.
I'm here to see the city where my crush lives 😂! Awesome video ! Thank you 🤍
That's all west side. Don't forget fort bliss on the east side for dod card holders, L&Js, Franklin mountains for hikes!
Don't forget to not come. Lol absolutely worthless to visit.
Ahhh the Franklin's...just beautiful
I had a lot of feeling, I was there touring the city when I was younger, I like what happened
This was helpful. I’m here for work and was able to explore a bit.
I was stationed at Fort Bliss in
1985
Bout to move there soon, thanks for the video
Excellent video! Great for me as a new resident to get the scoop on places to go and see.
Used to live there in the late 80's. Lots of interesting stuff to see and do.
I’m flying out there tomorrow. It’s been almost 20 years since I was last there. This video is a good refresher!
How was your trip? ☺️
i love this guy, he knows what he's doin and he knows what he's talking about
I did a two year mobilization at fort Bliss with the army reserves (2016-2017) and let's just say I continue to go back at least once a year.
Seems nice, looks better than San Antonio tx. I moved back to S.A 2 years ago, I didn't like it then and still don't like it now. I'm thinking I might move to El Paso, I like how close it is to AZ and NM. I'm more used to the southwest culture than South Texas culture and el paso seems like its more southwest than Texas.

I'll be in El Paso for a week on my way to Austin and I'm looking forward to exploring the city
nah tucson is better
Good flic. Enjoyed the comment. Be there this spring.
Nice vid! I am from el paso and ran into this channel from watching los cabos video.
El Paso is basically just a better Albuquerque.
Facts I live in Albuquerque and and I'm considering moving to El Paso. But Albuquerque to be fair is a better version of Pueblo Colorado and Las Cruces.
@@trippylatino5754 yeah lol it all sucks tho
Texas makes the shit better my dude (I'm joking, new mexicans don't come for me pls)
@@xtyiu2017 its the same
@@naysaynetwork5271 guessing you never been to el paso

Haven't been to El Paso, but loved the song El Paso (Marty Robbins). If I were to relocate to TX one day, probably it will be North Dallas 🤩.
Living is expensive but the pay is much much higher then elpaso. I’m from elpaso and live north of Dallas

That downtown is super clean
Nice informative video, doing research as I’ll be heading to El Paso to visit very soon
Thanks for this video!!

It’s cool how close we are to Mexico… 🇲🇽
yesterday was stormy lmao he is lucky to do this video
Texas! Love Texas! God Bless Texas!
I heard that this was the most spanish speaking city in America.
I would say it’s certainly up there. Considering the borderplex region very Mexican and American fusion. Cool city to stop through on i10
Most of us are bilingual but yeah you’ll hear Spanish almost everywhere around here.
I heard that there is a restaurant in Amirleo, Texas where if you can finish a 74 pound steak, you can have it for free. Maybe you should try to do that.
It's called the big Texas Steak House.
@@samihmina6388 hahaha amarillo
I like the way you wrote it though😉
Doing a Denver, Albuquerque, El Paso treck, El Paso is kind of ugly. At the same time very nice and exciting.👍
I plan on visiting this weekend before I head back up to Iowa.
There is nothing but open space in Iowa.
My mom's mom is native to California, and that's where i get a percentage of native American from
Gotta go to la posta in las cruces and Cattleman's Steakhouse in Fabens.
hi, is it safe to drive a rented car there as a tourist? i will roadtrip through there as a foreigner
Everything about this town is great, he mainly shows downtown but thats not what it’s all about, there’s so much more than downtown
Una città senza molto diversa da dove vivo io. Io vivo vicino Venezia in Italia. Sicuramente un cielo meraviglioso
looks friendly
Thanks!!
From Brasil
My dream el Paso 💖🙏
Nice video tour alpaso
Did you get harassed for filming the border fence?
Great video!
Gracias 👍
Nice tour of the city, want to visit
My love is stronger then my fear of death
This is where my moms dad, and my dad's mom are from
Good video but I feel lots of info is missing for those outside of the city seeking to visit. FYI I do live in El Paso
I also live in El Paso. Been here 2 yrs from Minneapolis. I love the weather, but its really hard to meet people here. Everybody family already knows each other.
@@amyschmidt1113 You can meet me! I just moved here in August, I feel the same way!
Pioneer park? I've always known it to be San jacinto plaza
People tend to conveniently leave out the part about the deplorable job market. Nice place to live doe.
I may end up moving to El Paso. Looks awesome and the weather seems perfect. Plus I'm sure there's lots of fine Hispanic women.
Great video
Nice video like view of the city
Nice video!
I have to get a chihuahua game
El paso is also close to marfa texas
Lol I keep running into your videos. Miss your alt coin buzz/news videos. 😅
We are due for a bitcoin bull run aren’t we?
@IslandHopperTV every 4 years, yes sir. Hasn't disappointed me since 2016
I’m from the dfw area planning to move over there in El Paso. Y’all recommend it?
Richard Ramirez was here once upon time
Great tour . 👌thanks
Hey John I can see your house from here, hehehehe yeah i live in El Paso on the Eastside.
Are there attractions or fun activities to do? Night live? Thanks!
No... This is an old city. If there are, they're close to none. But I don't like the typical big cities, and this is a huge plus for me.🙂
@@charliedays Yes, for me too... I agree. Thanks!
Visiting my boyfriend here next month
Nice video ii been there very history's I want go back and live is a safe city hot yes butt is worth
El paso is the most boaring city! And I say it because I live there 😩...But great video!! ❤️
That’s part of the charm. Growing up in Philadelphia and frequenting New York often, it would be nice to see something totally different
Out in the west Texas town of El Paso
I fell in love with a Mexican ho
Sometimes we held hands as we walked together
To buy marlboros rojos at the sto
Usually it is hot as hell in El Paso
But sometimes it's cold and it might even snow!
Who is filming you from behind while you're walking?
i have lived in el paso all my life and have never ever heard it called a "borderplex"
It's been called the boderplex for a while now.
@@Azarathify see, you learn something new every day
No ofense to anyone because i live in el paso but u just showed the worst part of the city i hate down town lmaoo
