Better than El Paso.


That's hard for me to comprehend, since I've somehow managed to make my way into the two most impoverished communities in the US, in Brownsville and McAllen. And that's literally the case. I make more in a month than many of these people make in a year, and I'm not rich by any means. I went to Rii Grande City the other day, and surely they misdrew the border. I'm about to go god damn insane.
Surely El Paso has an Irish pub somewhere.

As a whitey that goes to McAllen 3-4 times a year, I've never had any issues with locals. I usually stay at the Embassy Suites and go to a lot of local restaurants and bars with coworkers. Where are you staying/hanging out?

Of course, I thought El Paso wasn't bad either...I stayed around UTEP and went bar hopping in down town. Never had any issues and there are some absolutely beautiful Hispanic women around there. Despite being across from Jaurez, El Paso is actually one of the safer large cities in the US.

There are worse places in LA than Brownsville and McAllen. Seriously. Get over it. Go knock of a Latina lady and remove her from the life of serfdom down there
