Yes -- it's too bad all that has to go.
I'm okay with changing El Paso -- but I'd prefer changing it back a couple decades. When it's all nothing but big city for miles and miles -- that's when I'll leave.
El Paso is worth living in -- but not when it's 2 hour daily commutes to work and back each way -- then I might as well have an ocean or some lakes nearby.
