I'm on the east side of El Paso, Tx, in a home built camper I
made for my pickup truck with no wood material. I recommend
those who move out here to go to google maps and look at
satilite views of the area your contemplating that way you can
clearly see if their is any agriculture close to it. Most places
are very close to agriculture (many times within blocks) which
is extensive and follows the rivers out here which all go
through or near major towns and cities like tucson, benson,
wilcox, etc.
The east side of el paso which is very dry is about 10 miles
from the rio grande and clear of any of the surrounding agriculture.
One other thing which is disappointing about all these areas is
the dry weather makes for lot's of dust storms, to the point
where you can't even see mountains in the background. I can't
use air conditioners which is proving difficult for me. Many
structures out here have mold and I am highly reactive to it. I
try to do all my shopping at walmarts which always have the best
maintanece on their air handling equipment.
