About the Community

The Rio Grande Valley extends along the U.S.-Mexico border, from the tip of Texas to approximately 100 miles upstream. The bustling hub of the Valley is the City of Palms, McAllen, Texas. McAllen draws on a rich history as a key crossroads between two nations. And over the years, the city has emerged as the region's leader in commerce, trade, culture, entertainment and healthcare.

McAllen (pop. 100,000+) maintains the benefits of a tranquil community thriving in a tropical setting while drawing on the energy and vitality of the metropolitan market area which it anchors. The Valley itself counts on a population of over 1 million residents, with hundreds of thousands more living directly across the border in Mexican sister cities.

The hallmark of the area is the welcoming multicultural atmosphere coupled with the beautiful climate and natural surroundings.
