Abstract
Not only are Texas residents among the most mobile in the nation, but over a million Texans move from one county to another within the state. This brings important questions to the table regarding urban, education, healthcare, and security policy planning at the local and state level. In this report, author Carlos Navarro analyses the major migration links for outflows and inflows of households and individuals who live along the Texas-Mexico border, with special attention placed on the Rio Grande Valley and the El Paso commuting zones. A comparison of the average income of movers relative to non-movers is also presented.
