How fast it lit fiber building the fiber network?

I saw Lit Fiber signed up their first residential customer in August near the post office on Los Ebanos. How fast are they expanding the area that can get fiber service?

Matcha recommendations

Hi y’all! I’m on the hunt for the best ceremonial-grade matcha drinks in the Valley. I’m not looking for sweetened drinks, just pure, high-quality matcha with that authentic flavor. My best friend, who has traveled a lot in Asia, is really particular about this, so any recommendations would be super helpful! I’ve heard Bandera has a matcha-based alcoholic drink but I haven’t tried it myself. Any insights would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Best place to get pottery/planters?

What is the best place nearby to get pottery/planters? Primarily looking for terracotta but any place will do really. Heading down to Brownsville for a yearly trip my family does, and wanted to pickup some cheap planters. Used to load up on them in Matamoros before we stopped going over but haven’t found a new place since.

I am looking into either get one of those already built homes or plan one from scratch, as a first time buyer, I'd like to review options and such, still there are tons of results in Google and I don't know which one to go to, call or ask information about.

Specialty Cafes & Coffee Roasters

Hi everyone!

I’m visiting a friend in the Harlingen area this weekend, and I’m a big fan of specialty and novelty coffee shops, especially those that roast their own beans. I’d love to explore some unique spots while I’m in town. Any recommendations for must-visit coffee shops or roasters in the area? Thanks in advance!

Nursing program at Texas Southmost

I have some questions for anyone that has gone through or knows someone that graduated from the program! I listed them below for ease of reading:

  1. How hard was it to get into the program? Do many people apply and not get in?
  2. What did you think of the program overall? How were the professors/courses?
  3. Did you work while completing the program?
  4. Did you need proof of insurance while a student there?
  5. I’m new to Brownsville and my Spanish isn’t the best. How much will this hinder me as a student?
  6. Did you feel prepared for the NCLEX?
  7. Overall, would you recommend the program?

Thanks! I’d appreciate any kind of feedback :)

Municipal mobile telecom people?

Apologies for the pretty random question folks, but I would love to speak to someone involved with the local mobile telecom operators in town and insights into network deployment by the City of Brownsville. I figure someone like that might follow the local subreddit.

What's to do or see in Brownsville?

Hey All ... I'll have a few days by myself in Brownsville this weekend (I live in WA state) with a fair amount of free time, so I'm looking for some sights or sounds or what have you. I probably wouldn't do any zip-lining, but other than that, I'm open to whatever. Touristy stuff, or just, you know, interesting. On or off the beaten path.

I usually take a lot of pictures, so anywhere especially photogenic is cool, too. Also, I don't have to stay in town. I don't mind driving for a while.

What’s Your Take on SpaceX in Our Community?

Hey everyone,

I wanted to reach out and get some thoughts from the community about SpaceX and Elon Musk’s impact here. Personally, I’m not the biggest fan of what Musk and his company are doing in our area, but I’m really curious to hear different perspectives—whether you’re for or against it.

I’m not looking to start a heated debate in the comments, but I do want to understand how everyone feels about this. If you’ve noticed any specific changes, good or bad, since SpaceX set up shop here, I’d love to hear about those too.

Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts!
