Fort Bliss, situated in the western reaches of Texas just a few miles north of the U.S.-Mexico border, is a long-standing military base that’s surrounded by a diverse mix of rentals that will make any servicemen on base or resident of the area feel at home. There’s a mix of single-family homes and apartment communities for rent, all just minutes from the base. Just off of U.S. Highway 54 lies a mix of Mexican restaurants, taco spots, locally owned shops and more, making this a convenient locale for both work and leisure. Tom Mays Park to the north showcases the beauty of the desert, and is a popular outdoor recreation spot for anyone who works on base.
