Laredo is one of the oldest cities in Texas since it was set up in 1755. It also has some of the highest populations of Hispanic Americans among all American cities. The city is best known for housing the famous Texas A&M University, and it has a population of a little over a quarter of a million people. Laredo’s location close to the U.S. border with Mexico also provides it with one of the largest inland ports in America, which is crucial for U.S. imports from Mexico. Naturally, this also makes it a hub for transportation and warehousing in Texas.
