Anthony
Anthony straddles the New Mexico-Texas line so literally that the same name appears twice on the map, with the state border running between them. The New Mexico side, ZIP 88021, sits along I-10 about twenty miles north of El Paso and twenty south of Las Cruces, which is the entire pitch: cheaper than either, close enough to commute to both. Dating here is a logistics exercise. The dateable pool lives in two different metros, and whichever direction you drive at 7pm decides what kind of evening you are having. Locals treat the border as a feature, not a flaw.
