Northeast El Paso stretches north along Dyer Street and Gateway North past Fort Bliss toward the New Mexico line, with established neighborhoods near Hondo Pass and newer subdivisions in the far Northeast. Many residents have ties to Fort Bliss, as soldiers, retirees or family members.
That military connection is visible in the care landscape: the Ambrosio Guillen Texas State Veterans Home is on Kenworthy Street, and William Beaumont Army Medical Center sits on Fort Bliss to the east. Families here should expect a long drive to the West Side communities, since the Franklin Mountains sit between them.
