Laredo handles more land-port trade volume than any other U.S. border crossing, and its electorate is overwhelmingly Hispanic — a demographic mix that has kept Webb County among the most Democratic-leaning counties in Texas for decades, though margins have narrowed in recent cycles.

Across the recorded series it reached a Democratic high of 80.3 points in 1964 and a Republican high of 14.8 points in 1912. Between 2020 and 2024 the metro moved 25.4 points toward the Republican candidate; the 2024 margin was 2.2 points.

A population of 269,294, a 4% non-Hispanic-white share, and a median household income of $63,058 describe the metro. The metro's voting pattern over the last decade is most similar to that of McAllen-Edinburg-Mission, TX and Eagle Pass, TX.

The metros whose fingerprint — 2000–2024 trajectory, demographics, ancestry, religion — sits closest to this one, and why.

Twin score (0–100) = weighted cosine between tier-standardized fingerprints: presidential margins 2000–2024 with 12-yr trend and elasticity, ACS income, age, education, population and race, top reported ancestries, and religious adherence — chips name the closest-shared dimensions and the widest gap. Re-weight the groups in the twins explorer.
