Recreation and regional events that complement the industrial base.

Pecos has a commercial identity that runs alongside its industrial base. Regional events, recreation, and visitor activity bring external spending into the community and reinforce Pecos’s visibility across West Texas - which matters for businesses that need to recruit employees from outside the region.

The West of the Pecos Rodeo - one of the oldest in the country - draws participants and spectators from across the region each year. Combined with events like the Cantaloupe Festival, Pecos maintains a recurring calendar of activity that supports local hospitality, retail, and services.
