I am Active Army and lived in my camper for a year while I was going to school at Ft Bliss. I stayed at the Ft Bliss RV Park for the year. Great park with clean amenities, dog walking area with grass, and they are across from a shopette/ gas station. The down side for many is you have to be serving, retired, or a disabled vet to stay there. As previously stated El Paso is a safe place. Most people there are very friendly and there a few things to do if you need a break from the road for a few days. I would encourage any military folks to stay at the Ft Bliss Park and take a tour of Ft Bliss, it a very nice post.
