So, are you considering moving to Chuco Town? If you\u2019re on the fence, here are four reason to move to El Paso<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. El Paso is affordable<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s be honest, the cost of living is important in any major move, and thankfully El Paso provides you the chance to get more bang for your buck. In fact, according to move.org, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.move.org\/lowest-cost-of-living-by-us-city\/\">El Paso has the lowest cost of living<\/a>. The website looked at the average monthly cost of five common expenses, which are composed of rent, utilities, internet, gasoline, and food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And this savings isn\u2019t just for renters and home buyers. The website also ranked El Paso as one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.move.org\/most-affordable-college-towns\/\">most affordable college towns<\/a>, being the most populous town to earn a spot on among these ranks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. El Paso is safe<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Outside of having a great cost of living, you\u2019ll want to have a great quality of life to match, and you can rest easy knowing El Paso is safe. According to <a href=\"https:\/\/advisorsmith.com\/data\/safest-cities-in-america\/#large\">AdvisorSmith<\/a>, El Paso is among the top five safest largest cities in America, having under 4 violent crimes per 1,000 people and a little more than 15 property crimes to that same amount of people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. The Great Neighborhoods of El Paso<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Digging a little deeper than the overall town, even the neighborhoods of El Paso are nationally recognized. For instance, in 2019, National Geographic Traveler ranked two of the city\u2019s oldest areas among the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalgeographic.com\/travel\/destinations\/north-america\/united-states\/best-american-neighborhoods\/#\/mural-elpaso-texas.jpg\">best american neighborhoods<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chihuahuita and El Segundo Barrio communities are a must-see of outdoor murals celebrating Hispanic culture. You can even download the free Visit El Paso app for a guided walking tour of these public art pieces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Enjoy a great work-to-life balance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re not noticing by now, life is all around more enjoyable in El Paso, and it was even recognized in 2018 as one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/elpasoheraldpost.com\/website-places-el-paso-in-top-25-cities-with-best-work-life-balance\/\">top 25 cities for best work-life balance<\/a>, due to the low cost of living, safety of the overall city, and strong workforce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After work, you can enjoy local outdoor attractions such as the San Jacinto Plaza, named a <a href=\"https:\/\/elpasoheraldpost.com\/san-jacinto-plaza-named-great-public-space-of-texas-for-2019\/\">\u201cGrace Public Space of Texas\u201d<\/a> by the American Planning Association in 2019. If you really want to get out after the workday is done, checkout local outdoor hotspots and hiking trails such as McKelligon Canyon for everything from a hike to a picnic. The Sun City, which boasts more than 300 days of sun a year, is also among the <a href=\"https:\/\/livability.com\/tx\/el-paso\/experiences-adventures\/these-are-the-5-best-places-to-live-for-people-passionate-about\">best places for rocking climbing<\/a>, with spots such as Hueco Tanks or the Franklin Mountain State Park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, the list of <a href=\"https:\/\/visitelpaso.com\/media\/el_paso_accolades\">reasons El Paso is awesome<\/a> could go on and on, and if there is any other reason you think someone should move to El Paso please tell us below!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And if you are looking to relocate to El Paso, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.storage.com\/self-storage\/texas\/el-paso\/\">click here<\/a> to learn how El Paso self storage can help.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Right along our nation\u2019s southern border in Texas is the great city of El Paso, a rare bi-national metro area with neighbors in the bordering state of New Mexico as well as the nation of Mexico.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":37,"featured_media":13947,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[839],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13946","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-moving-advice"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v27.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Four Reasons to Move to El Paso &#8211;
