That's ok. A lot of shoppers from Cameron County come spend their money to Hidalgo County to the tune of millions more than in CC. You're just getting excited about people who go to HAR or BRO to LEAVE your cities and spend money elsewhere. And even then, MFE is still #1. I think there are more people flying into HRL and BRO vs. flying out because of legitimate tourist attractions like South Padre Island, ecotourism, and now SpaceX. The 104,000+ acre Laguna Atascosa National Wildlife Refuge is a big deal for not only birders but traditional hunters and bow hunters like joe Rogan, who already went hunting for Nilgai in south Texas on “public land”. There’s a reason Richard Moore’s outdoor reports are mostly shot in Cameron County, y’all don’t have any water features like a bay, the Gulf of Mexico, resacas, marshes, or unique features like sand dunes covered with thousands of Spanish Daggers (Yucca) or the last remaining grove of native Sabal palm trees at the Sabal Palm Sanctuary. The trees that litter the RGV are not native to the RGV, they’re from Sonora/Baja California, the only true native palm trees are the Mexican Sabal Palm tree. The only water features y’all have is the salt lake at the Sal de Rey tract, but if you can’t fish, use your jet ski, boat, kayak, or SUP there’s only so much you can do out there.

You're just getting excited about people who go to HAR or BRO to LEAVE your cities and spend money elsewhere. And even then, MFE is still #1. Excited? I'm just posting facts. "You're just getting excited about people who go to HAR or BRO to LEAVE your cities and spend money elsewhere" With that logic even more people are leaving Hidalgo county via MFE to "spend money elsewhere" Granola. The only reason MFE is #1 and HRL is #2 is because of BRO. If BRO was to shutter operations tomorrow, that 15% market share that BRO has would go straight to HRL - NOT MFE. "That's ok. A lot of shoppers from Cameron County come spend their money to Hidalgo County to the tune of millions more than in CC" - And not only do Hidalgo County peeps flock to our coastline every weekend 10 months out of the year, and every holiday, and every special occasion, they own 2nd homes on SPI paying property taxes to Cameron County. And if they DON'T own a 2nd home, they're willing to drop thousands of dollars on rentals, and even more one food and entertainment multiple times a year while they're enjoying their stay in Cameron County.
And yet, you're dying inside because CC will never measure up with HC. POPULATION. Retail. Entertainment options. Restaurants. Schools. University. Colleges. Airports.

More like you don’t want to live in Cameron County, and that’s ok. Nobody is opening restaurants or entertainment options? Main Event? The hotels? The wave of restaurants recently announced for Brownsville with more in the way? The potential rumored Costco, at Home, PF Chang’s, and Texas de Brazil by a Brownsville city commissioner? No Bubba Gump’s?

No Bubba Gump’s? NOTHING going on at Mierda - after how many years already? Rumors of Costco & Macy's for over a decade. You all just got Olive Garden - we've had since the 80s... and have 4 of them (including San Juan lol).

I’m not trying to be an a** but Y’all shouldn’t get all worked up about this. Again, y’all have your assets and Cameron county has theirs - we jus have assets that can’t be duplicated anywhere in your county, like SPI, SpaceX, the Gulf of Mexico, the Laguna Madre, the Port of Brownsville, Quality of life outdoor activities, etc., but we can always build a Macy’s, we can always build an arena, we can always build a Five Guys, we can always build a Costco, we can always build a Sprouts, and every other single brick and mortar restaurant, retail, and entertainment option currently in Hidalgo County - it’s just reality.

Again, I hate to be the one to tell you but there’s nothing special or unique about having 4 Olive Gardens in your county, you DO understand that don’t you? I see why you did with the Madeira name, not bad.
