Border highway is a lifeline in the Lower Valley
Thomas Manor maintains a low profile in El Paso as one of several Lower Valley neighborhoods on the U.S.-Mexico border. “It’s a fast-developing area, but it’s not as high demand,” says Charlie Clark, broker and owner of Century 21 Clark Brothers Inc. However, with the Cesar E. Chavez Border Highway — a portion of the Texas 375 Loop that encircles the city — running along its western edge, the neighborhood appeals to commuters. “The selling point is that it’s close to the border,” says Brenda Chavez, Realtor with Home Pros Real Estate Group. “And people like it because it’s close to Loop 375. That offers better access to the city than I-10 because there’s less traffic.”
Thomas Manor includes newer developments, welcoming young families and retirees alike.
Community spirit is a hallmark of Thomas Manor, including community games at the stadium.

Ranch-style homes at lower-than-average prices
Many homes in Thomas Manor are set at a price point that's relatively low by El Paso standards. Ranch-style houses dating to the 1960s typically sell for $150,000 to $250,000, while newer adobe and Spanish Mission-style homes might cost $300,000 to $450,000. Paved sidewalks make it easier to walk the dog or visit neighbors. Palm trees and low shrubbery crop up along the sidewalk in places, and many homes include patches of lawn bordered by low fencing. Availability is scarce in this rapidly growing area, and some vacant lots still await development. Investors can expect to pay $50,000 to $125,000 for a quarter-acre lot.
The affordability of the housing market in this area makes it appealing to first-time buyers
In addition to residential projects, some infrastructure improvements include new sidewalks.
