About Elsa

Located in the Rio Grande Valley about twenty minutes east of Edinburg, Elsa offers a quiet, small-town feel surrounded by South Texas farmland. The community has deep agricultural roots, including a fun claim to fame as the original birthplace of Ro-Tel canned tomatoes in the 1940s. Daily life is relaxed and closely tied to neighboring Edcouch, with both towns sharing the local school district. Thanks to Highway 107 running straight through town, it is easy to enjoy the calm neighborhoods here while staying a short drive from the shopping and jobs in the greater McAllen area.
