Source: U.S. Census Bureau, ACS 2020-2024, tables C16001, B01003 and B19013. Speaking Spanish at home isn't the same as being Hispanic. El Paso ranks number 8 by speakers among the 118 cities of 100,000 or more that clear 20%.

What the El Paso market is like

El Paso and Ciudad Juárez work as one region: many people live, work or shop on both sides. Unlike the rest of Texas, El Paso runs on Mountain Time, a detail worth mentioning if you serve customers or suppliers elsewhere in the state.

Downtown and Segundo Barrio welcome people crossing the international bridges. The east side holds more families and services.

Here, Spanish is part of the main market

More than half of El Paso speaks Spanish at home. Your website, Google Business Profile, ads and whoever answers the phone should work fully in Spanish as well as in English.

Cover Spanish at the moments that decide the sale

38.3% of Spanish speakers here say they speak English less than "very well". Prioritize what builds trust: prices, guarantees, payment options and who to contact.

Three ideas for El Paso businesses

Clinics, dentists and optical shops

If you serve patients from both sides, publish reference prices and how to book from Juárez. That clarity saves phone calls and builds trust.

Downtown retailers

Say how many blocks you are from the bridge, which payment methods you take and your hours. That is what someone crossing to shop needs to know.

Logistics and maquiladora suppliers

Decisions often happen in English while operations run in Spanish. A bilingual website speaks well to both.
