At 24,000 acres, El Paso's Franklin Mountains State Park is the largest urban park in the country. It's a unique resource - an outpost of wild Chihuahuan Desert in the midst of a major city. In 2018, El Paso was ranked as the city with the lowest cost of living by Forbes magazine and the second safest city in the U.S. Exceptional public school and private schools are available. The city has minor league baseball and soccer, museums, excellent dining options and shopping. The El Paso International Airport is easy to access, making travel simple and efficient. One can enjoy living in the mountains and skiing is just two hours away. El Paso was honored as a 2018 All-America City by the National Civic League.

TTUHSC El Paso is one on four independent universities in the Texas Tech University System. The Health Sciences Center consists of the Paul L.
