"What is the best area to live?"


What is the best area to live? - 4/15/2006

El Paso, TX

I am thinking of relocating with my family. My husband would work at the airport and I am looking for a low crime area with good schools and low housing cost (probably renting at first). I am hispanic and would like to know if there is cultural diversity and/or segregation and/or racism. I am from a place that is mostly hispanic and yet with a huge army base where there is little to no racism. I am more concerned for my child than myself. I would greatly appreciate some input thanks
