El Paso is part of the larger, unique El Paso-Juarez-Las Cruces metro area, which includes cities from New Mexico and Mexico. This metro area had an estimated population of 2.7 million in 2015 and makes up the largest bilingual, binational work force in the Western Hemisphere.

El Paso has a very diverse economy including manufacturing, international trade, education, military and defense, and call-center operations. The Greater El Paso Chamber of Commerce reports the city’s K-12 school count is at 167, split up between three independent school districts. There are also over 25 parochial schools and 50 private schools in the area. El Paso is home to one Fortune 500 company, Western Refining, however, 70 Fortune 500 companies have offices in the area including Hoover (vacuum cleaners), Eureka (vacuum cleaners), Boeing (aerospace), Delphi (automotive supplier), AT&T, and ADP (software).

Fort Bliss, William Beaumont Army Medical Center, and Biggs Army Airfield contribute to the large military presence in the area, which employs over 41,000 people. Because of El Paso’s vicinity near the U.S./Mexico border, the Federal government has headquartered offices for the DEA, the El Paso Intelligence Center, the Joint Task Force North, the U.S. Border Patrol El Paso Sector, and the U.S. Border Patrol Special Operations Group.

With all of the K-12 public, parochial, and private schools in the area, the education sector is one of the largest in El Paso and employs more than 20,000 teachers and administrators. The University of Texas at El Paso is another big piece of the education pie with over 4,800 employees and an annual budget of nearly $418 million.

Call-center operations centers make up seven of the top 10 employers in El Paso. With the 14 largest call centers employing more than 10,000 people each, the sector is a huge chunk of the working force in the area. The most notable call centers include ADP, EchoStar, MCI/GC Services, and West Telemarketing.

History

The El Paso region’s settlement dates back thousands of years starting with maize farmers and the Manso, Suma, and Jumano Indians. The first European explorer to arrive was Spaniard Juan De Onate in 1598, with his exploration party and a Thanksgiving meal. Later in 1659, El Paso del Norte, present-day Ciudad Juarez, was founded by Fray Garcia de San Francisco. Agriculture began with the complex irrigation systems as well as a large earthen dam built by the Spanish and Indians. After a New Mexican revolt in 1680, El Paso became the base for Spanish Governance in the southern area. Soon after there was rapid growth in the area of over 5,000 which included Spaniards, Criollos, Mestizos, and other indigenous spread along the Rio Grande River. El Paso remained primarily undeveloped during this time as the focus remained on the development of El Paso del Norte. The few attempts made by Spanish to move agriculture to El Paso were thwarted by Indian raids and warfare.

After the Mexican-American War in 1849, American settler families began to arrive in larger numbers and the town began to grow. With the Compromise of 1850, El Paso was finally recognized as a piece of Texas and not Mexico. Two large pieces of land and settlers came together with Hugh Stephenson’s 900-acre tract and a settlement called Franklin to form El Paso County, which was officially established in March 1850. The San Antonio-El Paso Road, a military post called “The Post opposite El Paso” and the San Antonio-El Paso Mail were all established in 1854. In 1859, Anson Mills named the town El Paso, much to the chagrin of El Paso del Norte, which was eventually changed to Ciudad Juarez in 1888.

The U.S Civil War was really the beginning of Fort Bliss and was used by Confederate forces until the city’s capture by the Union California Column in 1862. The Fort was then used by the 5th Regiment California Volunteer Infantry until December 1864.

In 1881, El Paso saw its largest boom yet with the addition of the Southern Pacific, Texas and Pacific, and Topeka and Santa Fe Railroads. Because of the green valley and perfect climate, merchants, entrepreneurs, and professionals came by the droves. El Paso’s economic and cultural makeup began to take shape with trade across to Mexico, the establishment of schools and a symphony orchestra. Religion was spread by the American Catholic hierarchy, which established parishes and schools throughout the area during the late 1800s through the early 1910s.

With the boom came gamblers, gunfighters, murderers, thieves, and prostitutes. The need for law enforcement grew and so a town marshal was hired in 1881. This simple act would translate into the numerous present-day law enforcement offices found in the area.

Education

The El Paso area is home to more than 11 colleges, universities, and higher education institutions. The most prominent include the University of Texas at El Paso, Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center El Paso, El Paso Community College, and Howard Payne University.

Culture and Recreational Activities

Festivals
With El Paso’s largest demographic identifying with Mexican or Hispanic heritage, the city has been infused with the Mexican American culture. One of the largest festivals held, Fiesta de las Flores, is the oldest Hispanic festival in the Southwest. It is a three-day festival that takes place during Labor Day weekend and attracts 20,000 to 30,000 visitors. Major attractions include the crowning of a festival queen, a parade, appreciation dances, regional foods, and live entertainment. Another big festival is Viva! El Paso which is an outdoor music festival that showcases the 400-year history and evolution of the region.

Arts and Museums
El Paso is home to the eldest symphony orchestra in Texas, the El Paso Symphony, as well as the Ballet El Paso. The Abraham Chavez Theatre and the Plaza Theatre are historic theatres with unique architecture that are home to various Broadway productions and concerts throughout the year.

Some museums in the area include the Centennial Museum and Chihuahuan Desert Gardens, which features Native American pottery, the El Paso Museum of Archaeology and the El Paso Museum of Art.

Sports
El Paso has a few minor league teams including the El Paso Chihuahuas (baseball), the El Paso Rhinos (ice hockey), and the El Paso Coyotes (indoor soccer). The rest of the sporting atmosphere is dominated by college sports, mostly UTEP teams. El Paso is home to the Sun Bowl, which is the second oldest college football contest after the Rose Bowl.

Many notable people have called El Paso home including Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States Sandra Day O’Connor, chef Aaron Sanchez, producer Gene Roddenberry, and musician Stevie Nicks.
