El Paso is not that bad, it just has an image prob

I grew up as an Army brat here, coming from Chicago at age six. I since left and came back multiple times. Now I'm considering moving away again now that I have seen the world. My husband and I want to teach our children the perspective of why one should 'leave your own backyard' so you can be a well rounded person. I think the charm about this place is the lack of racism, the fierce competition in the workforce and its general do-as-you-want lifestyle.
Unfortunately, some people consider those qualities to be a threat to thier fragile egos and negative self image (see anonymus comments). If this person hates to hear another language spoken in her presence she should ask herself why SHE CHOOSES to remain so ignorant. If she thinks El Pasoans are dumb,rude, gangsters then this is the perfect place for her self hating attitude.
P.S. Eating home made meals is healthier and relieves stress
