US housing guidance treats housing as affordable when it takes 30% of income or less, so the typical household is under that line. The median home value is $184,500, which is 3.1 times the median household income ($59,745); a ratio under 4 usually means ownership is within reach for many households. 60.8% of households own their home, about the same as the state average (60.8% against 62.6%).

Work and pay

The El Paso, TX metropolitan area has 339,120 jobs in the BLS wage survey, and the median pay across all occupations is $39,510 a year, 22% below the national median ($39,510 against $50,980).

The area is most specialised in protective service (1.3 times) and healthcare support (1.3 times), where the share of workers is above the national share. The best-paying groups with at least 5,000 jobs are management ($93,220) and computer and mathematical ($82,860). In 2026M09 the unemployment rate of El Paso County was 4.3%. 60.0% of residents aged 16 and over are in the labour force. The city lies in El Paso County; its jobs, pay by industry and GDP are on the county page.

Getting around

Among workers, 75.4% drive alone, 0.9% use public transit, 1.2% walk, 8.9% work from home. 8.2% of workers commute 45 minutes or more, 51% below the state average (8.2% against 16.9%).

People and education

28.1% of adults aged 25 and over hold a bachelor's degree or higher, 17% below the state share (28.1% against 33.8%). 22.4% of residents were born outside the United States, 27% above the state share (22.4% against 17.6%). The poverty rate is 18.4%, 33% above the state rate (18.4% against 13.8%).

Climate

The warmest month is Jul, averaging 83°F (28.3°C), and the coolest is Jan at 42°F (5.8°C). About 259 mm (10 inches) of precipitation falls in a year; Jul is the wettest month (53 mm) and Apr the driest (7 mm). These values come from NASA satellite-based climatology on a grid of about 50 km, so they describe the wider area, not a weather station in the city.
