I pretty much totally disagree with you. Combined with Juarez, Mexico, the metropolitan area forms the largest population center on any international border in the world. About 2.2 million live in the area, with 700,000 residents in El Paso.
El Paso looks dirty and is poor, so I think it gets a bad rap. But that doesn't mean that it's riddled with crime.
