Alamo, Texas

What It Is Like to Retire in Alamo

Alamo is a rapidly growing town of about 17,000 on the southernmost tip of Texas, just west of Brownsville. It has nothing to do with and is far away from the Alamo mission in San Antonio.   About 3/4 of the population is Hispanic, but many retirees live near here, attracted by the climate and proximity to the Gulf. The median age is 33. See our reviews of the Rio Grande Valley and Harlingen for more details about this region.
