About Odessa
What you're shopping for power in.
Odessa is Midland's twin city in the Permian Basin — historically more working-class oilfield than Midland's corporate-HQ flavor. The University of Texas Permian Basin is here.
Climate & bill pattern
Semi-arid West Texas climate.
Older housing stock dominates (1950s-90s, 1,400-1,800 sq ft); dry climate keeps AC bills lower than Gulf Coast, but freezing winters drive electric heating loads.
