El Paso stands on the Rio Grande across the Mexico-United States border from Ciudad Juárez, the most-populous city in the Mexican state of Chihuahua with 1.4 million people. Las Cruces, in the neighboring U.S. state of New Mexico, has a population of 215,579. On the U.S. side, the El Paso metropolitan area forms part of the larger El Paso-Las Cruces combined statistical area, with a population of 1,060,397.
These three cities form a combined international metropolitan area sometimes referred to as the Paso del Norte or the Borderplex. The region of 2.5 million people constitutes the largest bilingual and binational work force in the Western Hemisphere.
The city is home to three publicly traded companies, and former Western Refining, now Marathon Petroleum, as well as home to the Medical Center of the Americas, the only medical research and care provider complex in West Texas and Southern New Mexico, and the University of Texas at El Paso, the city's primary university. The city hosts the annual Sun Bowl college football postseason game, the second-oldest bowl game in the country.
El Paso has a strong federal and military presence. William Beaumont Army Medical Center, Biggs Army Airfield, and Fort Bliss are located in the area. Fort Bliss is one of the largest military complexes of the United States Army and the second largest training area in the United States behind nearby White Sands Missle Range. The fort is headquartered in El Paso but a large part of the training area is in New Mexico. Also headquartered in El Paso are the Drug Enforcement Administration domestic field division 7, El Paso Intelligence Center, Joint Task Force North, United States Border Patrol El Paso Sector, and U.S. Border Patrol Special Operations Group.
In 2010 and 2018, El Paso received an All-America City Award. El Paso ranked in the top-three safest large cities in the United States between 1997 and 2014, including holding the title of safest city between 2011 and 2014.
Downtown and central El Paso
This part of town contains some of the city's oldest and most historic neighborhoods. Located in the heart of the city, it is home to about 44,993 people. Development of the area started in 1827 with the first resident, Juan Maria Ponce de Leon, a wealthy merchant from Paso del Norte (present day Ciudad Juárez), who built the region's first structure establishing Rancho Ponce within the vicinity of S. El Paso Street and Paisano Dr. when the city was barely beginning. Today, central El Paso has grown into the center of the city's economy and a thriving urban community. It contains numerous historic sites and landmarks, mostly in the Sunset Heights district. It is close to the El Paso International Airport, the international border, and Fort Bliss. It is part of the El Paso Independent School District.
Dr. James Day, an El Paso historian, said that downtown's main business area was originally centered between Second Avenue (now Paisano Drive) and San Francisco Avenue. At a later point, the main business area was centered around Stanton Street and Santa Fe Street. In the late 1800s, most of the White American residents lived to the north of the non-White areas, living in brick residences along Magoffin, Myrtle, and San Antonio Avenues. Hispanic-American residents lived in an area called Chihuahuita ("little Chihuahua"), which was located south of Second Avenue and west of Santa Fe Street. Several African Americans and around 300 Chinese Americans also lived in Chihuahuita. Many of the Chinese Americans participated in the building of railroads in the El Paso area. Another downtown neighborhood is El Segundo Barrio, which is near the United States/Mexico border.

Been living in El Paso TX for 5 years and I love the sun. I can't stand the cold in Wisconsin.
I love sun too and cannot stand cold! 👍
My lovely city!
Is it safe ?
@@AOpenHearts hell yeah, besides the time a racist shot up a Walmart but it’s very peaceful
@@isaacmorales8392 ty 😁 and that's so horrible that happened 😢
I liked it too because of its special athmosphere
Pretty safe there
I’m from El Paso. I left 44 years ago. Have only been back to visit family and friends. I don’t hate it, far from it. I went into aerospace and there aren’t many opportunities in that field.
You made a right move my friend
I love my second home, greetings from Juarez
Lucky you! Easy to cross to El Paso from Cuidad Juarez! 👍
It’s snow there too and housing is very cheap I love it there
It's definitely cheaper than on the West coast ))
My childhood home place
That's awesome! 👍 Have you been to Mexico yet?
@@4KTravelChannel I was in New Mexico before I was going to Western Playland it was fun 😊
So many town's look like ghost towns now. I pray for the day when this virus is gone and our cities will feel alive again.
🙏😇🙏
It will be back to normal soon! 👍
Could you guys get a fold up map of El Paso and ask the cops to circle all the crime areas of El Paso and then drive through those blocks so we can see what those area;s look like so that will help us decide which areas to like in in El Paso...Thanks...That will be a very useful video for all of us that are interested in El Paso what areas to buy property in....Thanks
Great idea, thanks! )
12:48 Is that the old The Popular building on the right?
I used to work at a business in that building back some 30 years ago.
The tried making it into a downtown mall and it failed.
The Plaza Theater is right next door on the right. Then, back then, the San Francisco Bar & Grill was there.
Then we had what was then the Greyhound Bus Station, which is now the Art Museum… if it still is.
Damn… long ago. Haven’t been by there in years.
Great that you lived in El Paso!
Hoy está Ogrado mucho frío y las semanas pasadas cayó muchas nieves
Si
Born and raised and still here 😊 Kinda of boring but it's home and wouldn't have it any other way
Lucky you! Lots of interesting activities in the El Paso region 👍
Wow, beautiful city and super clean. I am curious about the Culture, is it different from other American cities considering the high population of Hispanic?
I would say yes, it’s different because it’s a border town.
My hometown 👍
Lucky you! 👍
From Virginia Beach love El Paso
That's awesome! 👍😎
What,you have warrants over there?🤔
Poreso buco un lugar caliente en Holandad hace mucho frío

Tha glass building is the court house
Good to know ))
It feels like a different country.
Little border town
@@4KTravelChannel most definitely not a "little border town". the 22nd largest city in the US but okay.
@@valerierules12 El Paso just felt to me like a little town, but in fact it is the 20th largest city in US.
@@valerierules12 El Paso definitely feels small, it's ranks in the late 60s as far as metro population
@@valerierules12 it’s small compared to a majority of most other cities , San Antonio is ranked the 7th largest city in the US but only 24th overall in metro
Must be Sunday!
No, it was a Monday )
Than county jail next to the courthouse
Lol! That's for convenience!
The first 2:30 min I saw like 4 or 5 Bail Bonds for a safe city, LOL .
:))
Its for all the duis lol
Cuz he started driving around the court which makes sense to advertise there
It's across the street from our county jail and courthouse, that's why you're seeing 'em all in one spot there. That big glass building is the courthouse and the white/beige one beside is the detention center. So across the street is where you'll find all the bail bond companies the entire city has, lol :)
- Actually, aside from the downtown detention center, we only have one more small jail annex 20 miles away near the city limits and that's it for jails. Lol. For a city with just shy of a million people I'd say that's not half bad :p
Another stupid comment….
You have to live in El Paso to know how unexciting it is.
It’s a quiet little border city 👍😉
it looks pretty boring, not nice buildings like in Europe, I think it is better to live in Europe
Looks it
@@glunatica how ignorant are you? Comparing El Paso to Europe?! That’s pretty stupid…
Born and raised here in El Paso and I’m well traveled. I always missed it when I was gone and I’ll be here forever because it’s home and it’s a beautiful place all around. People that say it’s boring are simple minded with nothing to offer. There’s a lot to do here, but if you’re a boring person in general, you’ll never find the excitement.

Awesome!
Where is everybody?
I think people are still afraid to come out because of Covid.
I think everyone is just chillin at home...
Working, El Paso people are hardworking!
What day and what time of day? Looks like a ghost town.
I got the same impression)
Cd juarez cuando mexico sea potencia xD
Buena idea
Zip code is 799.
Three digit zip code?
The first three digits of a Zip Code are called the Zip Code Prefix. So in a particular area, say the City of El Paso and sometimes surrounding areas, the Zip Code Prefix remains the same ( 799 for the El Paso area ) but the last two digits of the Zip Code will change to denote different sections of that larger area.
