Blue Collar town full of low life law enforcement
This is a geographically beautiful place. With Sul Ross University here you would expect a more educated population. Sadly, this town is dominated by law enforcement and now pipeline workers. Put them in the same category: overpaid, uneducated, and totally without an ounce of class. The pipeline project has ruined this town, and the ever increasing hiring of overpaid, scummy border patrol agents adds to the demise. Our property value sank 30% by having a border patrol agent move next door. Seriously.
We are moving as fast as we can, leaving behind one of the few businesses that has prospered for over ten years here. In addition, this is the most dog unfriendly place you will ever visit. They are not allowed in any bars or eating establishments and if your dog happens to get out of your yard there is a good chance it will get shot.
