Del Rio is a small and fairly secluded city on the Mexican border, directly across the Rio Grande from Ciudad Acuna. Situated just outside Laughlin Air Force Base, the largest pilot training facility in the United States Air Force, Del Rio is home to a large number of civilian military employees and support personnel, as well as armed service members seeking off-base housing. Much of the city retains a rustic appearance that has made Del Rio a popular filming location for films and TV shows over the years, particularly westerns. The diverse rental market features a mix of apartments, condos, and single-family homes, with great options available for any budget or lifestyle.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
