La X Homes for Rent

La X, a neighborhood in Laredo, Texas, is one of the city's oldest areas, with homes built between 1950 and 1980. The neighborhood features single-story single-family and multi-family homes, many of which require repairs and modern updates. Chain-link fences and narrow sidewalks are common, and while many homes have carports, street parking is prevalent. Prices for homes range from $115,000 to $160,000, with multi-family options priced between $200,000 and $250,000. Parks like Seven Flags and Azteca, part of the 10-mile Zacate Creek stretch, offer outdoor recreation, though access can be challenging due to overgrown paths. The City of Laredo has committed over $7 million to improve these parks, including new trails and a visitor center. Dining options include the historic Glass Kitchen and Taquitos Ravi Restaurant, with more eateries and shopping available less than a mile away in downtown Laredo and along San Bernardo Avenue. Public transportation is accessible via El Metro Transit, with routes connecting to Laredo Medical Center and Laredo International Airport, 5 miles away. Interstate 35 provides easy access to the region and the Mexico border. The neighborhood is served by schools in the Laredo Independent School District, with J.C. Martin Jr. Elementary, Memorial Middle School, and Dr. Leo Cigarroa High School. Annual events like the Laredo Birding Festival and the George Washington Birthday Celebration highlight the community's vibrant cultural scene.
