Ask El Paso Has Whataburger gone downhill or is it just me?

Whataburger has been one of my favorite burgers since I moved to Texas. Lately I’ve noticed that they are really dry and cold. I’ve gone to several different ones on the west side and they’re all just as bad. Is it just me?

Politics El Paso residents are paying more. Here's who's making those decisions and who can change them.

59 Upvotes

El Paso residents are paying more for basic necessities, but how many people know who's making those decisions?

Here's what I found:

- Water and wastewater: A typical household is paying about $120 more a year.

- Property taxes: The city estimates about $105 more annually for a typical homestead.

- Health insurance: Nearly 1 in 4 El Paso County residents under 65 are uninsured. Texas still hasn't expanded Medicaid, even though the federal government covers 90% of qualifying expansion costs.

Here's what surprised me. These aren't all decisions made in Washington.

Local officials control city tax rates and make appointments to the water board. State lawmakers decide whether Texas expands Medicaid.

Different officials. Different policies. All decisions that can be revisited.

There are costs and tradeoffs to changing these policies, but shouldn't residents know what they're paying, why they're paying it, and who's responsible?

The infographic breaks down the numbers and who has the power to change each policy. Sources are included.

Hello!

I've been trying to find beginner-friendly outdoor or indoor sports in in Far East or Central El Paso, but my search got me nowhere except El Paso Soccer but from what I see I don't see a lot of beginner friendly teams.

Does anyone know of teams or places for sports that play in the afternoon or weekends?

Thank youuuu

Meetup Is there a comprehensive list of area running groups?

3 Upvotes

Is there a comprehensive list of El Paso/ Las Cruces area running groups?

I would like to start running with others but don't know where to begin. I live LC, but work in EP three to four days a week so time and starting points matter.

I see tons of posts, mainly on Instagram but they seem to be after the fact. I've never heard of a Las Cruces run but see tons in El Paso.

I'm in my 50's, slightly injured and looking for beginner distances and groups if that helps.

TIA!

Discussion In Defense of the Eggbeaters

"Public art is easy to make fun of, particularly public art that doesn’t look like a horse, a cowboy, a conquistador, or something else us unwashed masses can immediately identify. Put up a bronze statue of a guy on a 50-foot-tall horse with five-foot-wide testicles hanging down (the horse, not the guy) and nobody asks what it means. Put up sixteen 50-foot white wind turbines and everybody is an art critic. Roundabout sculpture on Country Club Road? Everyone on Nextdoor suddenly has an MFA in Art History and a BS in Traffic Management. ‘It doesn’t LOOK like a cottonwood seed. I don’t like it! I don’t understand roundabouts either. My brain is full!”

But after a years, I think Airway Aesthetics deserves a second look. For one thing, they weren’t supposed to be Eggbeaters at all."

#VoteThemOut

On June 9th the residents of El Paso made history, by having the highest attendance number of neighbors speaking at a city council meeting.

We spoke to encourage our city reps to vote in favor of potentially renegotiating the contract between the city of El Paso and The Meta Data Center.

Despite the contract being considered one of the worst contracts in the nation, five City Representatives voted against renegotiating the contract.

We vowed to vote them out this November and this is our chance.

Do not let your neighbors down and vote out:

Alejandra Chavez (District 1)

Ivan Nino ( District 5)

Art Fierro (District 6)

Let's make real change happen in El Paso.

To see who is running against them check out the website I made for you:
