Yea i dont see what makes ElPaso so special....By the way thats a fallacy about them being poor. Compared to Chi and Det im sure the cost of living is lower in ElPaso
Yet their median income is 32K, in Chi its only 38K and in Det its actually lower at 28K. I believe 32K in Elpaso is doing better than 38K in Chicago by a long margin....
