The United States of America has a flag and the state of Texas has a flag, as do all the other states, but did you know every Texas city also has its own flag?

I think just about every city in the USA  has its own flag but hardly anyone knows it. They don't get anywhere near the respect and admiration that the flag of the United States of America or any of the state flags do.

Texas, of course, is the most recognized and respected state flag. Just sayin' ...

City flags, (cue Rodney Dangerfield), get no respect. Unless you're standing in a city office or in front of a city building; you've probably never even seen your city flag. To be honest, I hadn't and I've been in El Paso a looooong time.
