The young community of Santa Teresa is adjacent to New Mexico’s newest border crossing with Mexico. Year-round sunshine enhances a suburban lifestyle that is located just minutes away from the urban amenities of Las Cruces and El Paso, Texas. There are countless recreational activities for residents to engage in, from two 18-hole Lee Trevino-designed golf courses at the Santa Teresa Country Club to tennis and swimming. The country club is 34 minutes from the El Paso International Airport.
As the industrial parks west of Santa Teresa continue to expand to serve the growing maquila industry in nearby Juarez, Mexico, Santa Teresa is poised for explosive growth and opportunity. The Santa Teresa International Port of Entry is one of the newest and least congested ports of entry into Mexico. Continued development just across the border in San Jeronimo, Mexico coupled with the new Union Pacific intermodal facility will bring more industries to the parks. The parks are 27 minutes from the El Paso International Airport.
