Did You Know?

HISTORICAL

La Feria was founded in 1899 by John Closner, a German immigrant who established the town as a railroad stop along the St. Louis, Brownsville and Mexico Railway. The name 'La Feria' means 'the fair' in Spanish, chosen to reflect Closner's vision of creating a prosperous agricultural trading center in the fertile Rio Grande Valley.

RECENT

In 2020, La Feria completed a major downtown revitalization project that transformed their historic Main Street corridor with new sidewalks, period lighting, and landscaping. The $2.3 million project also included the restoration of several 1920s-era buildings and has attracted new businesses to the downtown area, reversing years of economic decline.

FAMOUS PEOPLE

La Feria is the hometown of Kris Kristofferson, the legendary country music singer-songwriter and actor who wrote classics like 'Me and Bobby McGee' and starred in films like 'A Star is Born.' Born here in 1936, Kristofferson spent his early childhood in La Feria before his family moved when his father was transferred to different military bases.

DID YOU KNOW

La Feria is home to one of the oldest citrus groves in Texas, planted in 1908, which still produces Ruby Red grapefruit today. The grove survived the devastating freezes of 1983 and 1989 that wiped out most citrus production in the Rio Grande Valley, making it a living piece of agricultural history that spans over a century.

CULTURAL

Every October, La Feria hosts the annual Citrus Fiesta, a tradition that began in 1932 to celebrate the citrus harvest season. The festival features the crowning of the Citrus Queen, live mariachi music, and the famous 'World's Largest Grapefruit Juice' contest where participants compete to squeeze the most juice from Ruby Red grapefruits grown in local orchards.

How to find the best energy plan in La Feria

#1 rule: Know your usage!

Knowing the amount of energy you will consume month-to-month is the ideal way to shop for energy in La Feria. Why is this so vital?

The "price per kWh" you see energy providers advertising is for an exact monthly usage (typically 2000 kWh).

Every plan has a different equation for how your monthly statement is computed, and your monthly bill will be determined by how much electricity you use in the month.

Unless you match the exact advertised usage each month, you will end up paying an effective "price per kWh" different than the one you saw advertised when you signed up.

Fortunately, there's a better way to shop for power providers.

Calculating your total monthly bill based on estimated monthly usage, then comparing options by total monthly cost is the best way to shop for the lowest rate for you.

Even better, if you have a year of usage history for your home, you can compare plans by total annual cost. This annualized method considers the changes in usage between the summer and winter months and is the ideal way to find the right electricity rate plan for your home.

Compare Power does all the complicated math for you in an instant. What could take you hours on a spreadsheet is now done in seconds.

We put you in the driver's seat, taking what would amount to hours of investigation, spreadsheets, and calculations across hundreds of offers to assist you step-by-step with the electricity plan that's best for your household's usage.

We clarify the fine print, disclosing the various charges, so you'll know exactly where your money is going and what to expect on your monthly bill.

We then help you sign up with your selected electricity provider without ever having to leave our website.

The bottom line is you should know your expected or historical usage before choosing the best electricity plan for your home.

If you don't know your usage, estimate

If you recently purchased a home or business or cannot obtain 12 months of usage history, you can always estimate the average amount of energy you will use in any given month.

Although knowing the previous 12 months of usage is optimum, it is far better to estimate the average energy consumption than to select the first electricity provider that you see advertised. After all, you have no idea how much energy you will use at that point.

Use Compare Power to find the best energy plan for your specific usage.

Moving to La Feria: Setting up Electricity

If this is your first time setting up electricity service in La Feria, you need to get the previous 12 months of energy usage for your new home to get the best rate.

Ask the previous homeowner to provide you with their past 12 months of usage.

This information is readily found in recent billing statements.

Acquiring usage for the past 12 months may take effort, but the time (and savings) will be well worth it.

Once you have historical usage, Compare Power will do the math instantly to help you find the best plan for your home's usage pattern.

Note: You can estimate your monthly usage if you can't obtain a usage history. Utilize our "Help Me Choose" tool when you enter your zip code below, and we'll help you evaluate your home's usage.

By signing up for a plan through Compare Power you will receive automated reminders when it's time to renew your existing plan or switch plans.

Switching Electricity Companies in La Feria

Switching is good. Market conditions are always in flux, so it is essential to shop for a lower rate each year when your contract is close to expiring.

Your existing energy provider will typically raise your energy rate once your term expires. If you do not act, you'll be left on a month-to-month rate significantly higher than the plan you signed up for.

Before renewing your contract, shop the rates of competing electricity providers.

Switching can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars yearly on your energy bill.

Switching is easy:

  • You don't have to contact your current provider to cancel (no "break-up call")
  • No one comes to your home
  • There is no disruption in your power supply
  • It takes just minutes

When you switch, your new energy company will handle everything, including canceling service with your previous provider.

Your lights stay on when you switch. Electricity in La Feria is all delivered by the Oncor Transmission and Distribution Utility.

The wires and poles that deliver electricity to your home do not change when you switch energy providers. Therefore the reliability of your service is not affected.

You can choose any date within 14 days of your contract expiration without an "early cancellation" fee. Texas law protects you here.

If you're still under contract, find out how many months remain on your contract. You can set a future start date with most companies up to 6o days in advance.

The amount saved each month by switching to a different electricity company may outweigh the one-time fee to get out of your contract early.

If you're ready to switch and would like to know how to find the best plan remember that knowing your usage is the best way to find the best rate.

You will want to find your past usage for the last 12 months to determine the best plan with the lowest rate for your household.
