Colorful murals near South Texas neighborhood

The Socorro neighborhood brings a rich history, culture, and sense of community. Local murals add a dash of color to the otherwise colorless streetscapes. The area is a little way from El Paso, but for locals, that is just what they want. “It’s not really country living, but it’s a bit out there, so you get a little more land,” Henry Holguin, a local Realtor with The Right Move Real Estate Group, says. Holguin has over 25 years of experience in real estate. The neighborhood is a stone’s throw away from Ciudad Juarez, the second largest binational metro area on the Mexico-U.S. border after San Diego-Tijuana.

Spanish revival homes near El Paso

Homes in Socorro come in various shapes and sizes and offer something for nearly everyone. “We have a little of everything: starter homes, older homes, and new construction,” Holguin says. Spanish revival and stucco ranch homes are the primary styles that fill out the neighborhood, with many including metal or chain link fences. Yard space is limited for many homes, but there is enough space in the front yards for a bit of decoration and maybe a small flower garden to add a pop of color. Home prices range from $140,000 for a two-bedroom, one-bathroom house to $950,000 for a seven-bedroom, nine-bathroom house with a backyard and attached three-car garage. Most homes in the area usually go for $175,000 to $190,000.

Growing together program at Socorro Middle School

Students will start their academic adventures at Campestre Elementary. The school offers a WIN Academy for their students, including a fast-track and flexible education system for students to gain more knowledge during the school year and offers extended school time. The next stop on their educational journeys is Socorro Middle School. The institution works to bring families together with a “growing together” program, a mother-daughter conference designed to help them bond and experience learning and engaging in activities together. Teenage students will attend Socorro High, where they can participate in sports like basketball, golf, and soccer. Socorro High is one of two teams in El Paso history to win a state championship in baseball, winning it all in 2009. All three schools receive a C-plus grade from Niche.
