3 Easy Ways To Celebrate 915 Day Today

Happy 915 Day El Paso!

Today we celebrate 915 Day in El Paso – the 915 referencing the El Paso area code number and today's date of September 15.

Our beautiful city of El Paso was first established in 1827 by Juan María Ponce de León. Soon after in 1881, the city’s growth boomed with the arrival of the Southern Pacific Railroad and finally, in 1873, El Paso was incorporated as a city.

As a border city, El Paso is located at the intersection of three states (Texas, New Mexico, and Chihuahua) and two countries (the U.S. and Mexico).

According to the 2019 U.S Census, El Paso is the sixth-largest city in Texas with an estimated population of 681,728, making it the 22nd-largest city in the country.
