Fabens

Among Texas communities, Fabens stands out for its position on the Rio Grande in El Paso County’s agricultural Lower Valley. The river marks the United States–Mexico border here, placing the community opposite the Mexican state of Chihuahua and within the broad desert basin around El Paso. Irrigated fields and orchards distinguish this stretch of the valley from the drier terrain beyond it, while the Fabens International Bridge links the area with Caseta, Chihuahua. Fabens also sits on the historic Southern Pacific rail corridor, recalling the transport routes that connected the borderlands with wider markets.
