U.S. News & World Report recently named McAllen the third best place in the nation for quality of life. In its Best Places to Live for Quality of Life in the U.S. report, it described McAllen as “a vibrant metro area and a major center for retail, international trade, tourism and manufacturing. A high quality of life, an abundance of medical facilities and a young, bicultural community are additional draws.”
