Townhomes for Sale in Siesta Acres, Eagle Pass

Life looks different by the U.S.-Mexico border, but it’s a difference that Siesta Acres embraces. A census-designated place of around 1,800 people, Siesta Acres is a fully developed residential area 3 miles north of Eagle Pass. While border crossings are facilitated at the Eagle Pass International Bridge by the Rio Grande, Siesta Acres enjoys a special relationship with Piedras Negas in Coahuila as Eagle Pass' sister city. Every March, they celebrate their collaboration across borders through the International Friendship Festival where they end the ceremony in a warm abrazo, or “embrace.” “We have a very good relationship with our sister city,” Aranda Real Estate owner Romelia Aranda says. “We are two communities that have a bridge and a river that runs through the middle of us. But without that, we are one community.” Public transportation in Eagle Pass is provided by the Southwest Area Regional Transit District, which runs a fleet of 52 buses that can be reserved 24 hours in advance. Siesta Acres is also conveniently located directly east of U.S. Route 277, which runs 52 miles north into Del Rio. The closest 24-hour urgent care is 4 miles south at Stat Specialty Hospital.
