People usually have a “dream city” to live in and most are big cities such as New York, Los Angeles, and Miami.

My dream city is my home town of El Paso, Texas which I think is a pretty cool place to live in if you ask me, because it is not too big, it is safe, and it is beautiful.

My favorite parts about El Paso are the mountains that surround the city and also the 302 days of sunlight we have, thus giving El Paso its famous “sun city” nickname.

Many people think of El Paso as a place that lacks improvement compared to bigger cities.

However, for me, El Paso is also very distinctive because of its people and culture.

Being a border city is something unique because of the bicultural community that results from being Mexico’s neighbor.

I believe El Paso is a very welcoming city and makes me feel as if I fit perfectly in its environment.

Having parents from Mexico that made the sacrifice to move into this city for a better lifestyle says a lot about this city.

El Paso is my loving home and I want to stay in this beautiful city surrounded with security and beauty.

I know and feel that El Paso is up for future improvement and does not lack initiative at all.

El Paso has good vibes and that is why I think El Paso is great.
