In the tiny city of Escobares, Texas, 62% of residents live below the poverty line.

That's the highest rate of any US city over 1,000 people, according to the 2016 US Census Bureau survey.

Directly on the US-Mexico border, the city struggles with crime and unemployment.

But local officials say they're trying hard to lift Escobares out of the cycle of poverty.
