City Comparison is coming back! We are looking at various jobs in our preferred states (Colorado, Utah and Texas) and I loved having the comparisons of different cities so they are returning for the cities in which we are applying for jobs! So on to McAllen...
Pros:
Winters will never see anything close to a single digit temperature
Housing is cheap
Possibility for some fantastic Mexican restaurants
Cons:
Summers will be HOT, HOT, HOT
It is 5 miles from the border which given the troubles border cities have had recently is something to consider...
The airport is more of a regional airport
I looked through 40 pages of pictures, these were the best I could find. That makes me nervous. Very, very nervous...
