About this map

The boundary between Jim Hogg Co and Starr Co bisects this South Texas landscape, documenting the contemporary ranching infrastructure and rural road networks of the brush country. The topography is largely defined by the movement of local traffic along FM 1017 and a series of family-named ranch access roads that intersect the county line. The presence of Borregos Ranch Rd and Ramirito Ranch Rd indicates the enduring legacy of private landholdings in this region, where large parcels remain divided by minimal surveying lines rather than dense settlement. Aside from the small thoroughfare of Jonquil, the map depicts a sparsely populated area where the primary human footprint is found in the cattle pens, wind pumps, and dirt tracks typical of the Rio Grande Plain.
