Be prepared for a culture shock.The area you mentioned is very sparsely populated and is in the Chihuahuan desert.Many areas do not even have cell phone service,unless it has changed in the past couple of years.There are a few towns that have the bare essentials you mentioned,Alpine,Marfa,Presidio,Van Horn.For a Wal Mart you have to go to Pecos or Ft Stockton.Also,be prepared to be a minority,or at least on a 50-50 split with the Hispanic population.Personally,I found the culture to be very enjoyable and laid back,but if you are one of those who get riled up over illegal aliens,or don't want to live in a predominantly Hispanic area, then you are moving to the wrong area.
Land is as cheap in this area as anywhere in Texas,and probably the US.
