Areas in La Union, NM
La Union spans the Rio Grande floodplain and adjacent mesa in southern Doña Ana County. The community is small and rural — buyers come here specifically for the space, the agricultural character, and the slower pace of life.
La Union Village Center
The heart of La Union sits along the Rio Grande floodplain in southern Doña Ana County. A tight-knit agricultural community with deep roots — many families have farmed here for generations. Smaller older homes mix with newer builds as the community slowly grows. A quiet, authentic New Mexico border village lifestyle.
View listingsRio Grande River Frontage
Properties with Rio Grande frontage or irrigation rights are rare and highly valued. Pecan orchards, alfalfa fields, and fruit trees characterize the agricultural lots along the river. These properties often come with acequia (irrigation ditch) rights — a unique feature that adds both practical value and historic character.
View listingsUpper La Union / Mesa Area
The elevated mesa sections above La Union proper offer larger lots with mountain views and more buildable terrain. Some newer construction has occurred here, attracting buyers who want rural character with a more modern home. Closer to Anthony, TX / NM for retail and services.
View listingsAnthony Adjacent
The northern La Union area borders the Anthony, TX / Anthony, NM communities — small towns that straddle the Texas-New Mexico state line. Buyers here get easy access to Anthony's retail, the I-10 corridor, and both El Paso and Las Cruces employment centers, with lower NM property taxes and larger lot sizes.

Why Buyers Choose La Union
Rio Grande Lifestyle
La Union sits directly on the Rio Grande — one of the most storied rivers in North America. Residents enjoy river access, lush riparian vegetation, and the agricultural beauty of the Upper Valley. Very few places in the El Paso metro offer this kind of natural setting at accessible prices.
Lower NM Property Taxes
Like all New Mexico communities, La Union benefits from significantly lower property tax rates than Texas. On a $250,000 property, annual taxes in La Union run approximately $1,000-$1,500 — versus $3,500-$5,000 for an equivalent home in El Paso County. This ongoing savings is a major draw for budget-conscious buyers.
Agricultural Heritage
La Union is one of the last true agricultural communities in the El Paso metro corridor. Pecan orchards, chili fields, and acequia irrigation systems are working features of the landscape. Buyers who want to live in a place with genuine agricultural character — not just a rural aesthetic — find La Union exceptional.
Large Lots
Lot sizes in La Union are among the largest available in the El Paso metro area at any price point. Quarter-acre to multi-acre parcels are common, and agricultural land can run to 5+ acres. Buyers who need space for horses, livestock, workshops, or simply privacy find La Union one of the best values in the region.
Close to Anthony & El Paso
Despite its rural character, La Union is only 15-20 minutes from El Paso's Westside. I-10 access through Anthony puts both Las Cruces and El Paso within 20-30 minutes for most La Union addresses. The trade-off — rural space for a modest commute — is one many buyers are eager to make.
Affordable Prices
La Union is one of the most affordable communities in the El Paso / Las Cruces corridor. Buyers who cannot afford Upper Valley El Paso or Santa Teresa frequently discover that La Union delivers a similar — or superior — rural lifestyle at significantly lower prices.
