Odessa guide

Odessa's Presidential Museum and Leadership Library on the campus of the University of Texas of the Permian Basin is the only facility of its kind in the United States -- dedicated to the office of the Presidency, not just a single president. There are also displays about the Presidents of the Republic of Texas. The museum was pushed to fruition by the late State Representative George "Buddy" West of Odessa.

Odessa Meteor Crater, an impact crater with 550 feet in diameter, is located southwest of the city.

Though the economy is primarily driven by the area's oil industry, new economic steps are currently being taken to ensure the city's existence after oil is no longer abundant in the area. Odessa is also a stop on-and a supporter of-the La Entrada al Pacifico trade corridor. In 2003 Family Dollar Corporation opened its 8th distribution center in Odessa's new industrial business park. Telvista, an inbound customer service call center, opened its doors in 2004 in its own new building in the industrial park. Coca Cola built a new distribution center in Odessa in early 2007.
