Glossary of Student Cities

El Paso, TX is a very large city.  It's situated in the western corner of Texas and is separated from Juarez, Mexico by the Rio Grande River. El Paso is also on the border between Texas and New Mexico.  The Franklin Mountains, part of the Rocky Mountains, are beautiful and keep us safe from tornadoes!  

Emigrant is located halfway between Livingston, Mt. and the Gardiner entrance to Yellowstone, National Park.  It is a small town with one store, one gas station, a saloon, a bank, a post office, a gift store, a laundromat and a few restaurants.  Although it might at first appear insignificant, because of its location on highway 89  people traveling to Yellowstone Park stop on their way.   There are flashing orange lights alerting travelers to slow down as they approach Emigrant. To the left is the store and theYellowstone River  and to the right is the post office and bank and Story Road leading up to the residential community of North Glastonbury.  I love to come home and see Emigrant peak towering behind the town,  and  although it is small, we have everything we need and it peaceful.
