Del Rio is a friendly, affordable border city on the Rio Grande with a relaxed, small‑city vibe, compact downtown, and strong local food and community life—making it an easy, pleasant base for travel therapists on multi‑week assignments who want more than a hotel room.
Outdoor lovers will appreciate nearby Lake Amistad/Amistad National Recreation Area for boating, fishing and hiking, and the Mexico border town of Ciudad Acuña is right across the river for cultural outings and weekend trips.
