As a result, unemployment rates are generally lower than average in Eagle Pass; however, due to the high demand for housing within the city limits combined with limited availability of property on which to build new homes (due primarily to zoning restrictions), unemployment rates can be relatively high during periods of low housing construction activity (such as currently). In addition, many businesses located within Eagle Pass rely heavily on cross-border trade; as such, any disruption or slowdown in cross-border trade could have significant impacts on local businesses (and consequently job opportunities).
