2010 Map of Arroyo de las Calabacillas

About this map

Rio Rancho serves as the focal point of this 2010 topographic study, showcasing the suburban expansion and planned grid system that defines this portion of Sandoval County. The landscape is deeply carved by numerous ephemeral drainage systems, most notably the winding Arroyo de las Calabacillas and the Arroyo de los Montoyas, which dictate the alignment of the local road network. The map reveals an intricate web of residential development, with numbered avenues and major thoroughfares like Progress Blvd and King Blvd NE cutting through the desert terrain. This specific era shows the transitional state of the region's growth, where high-density street plats meet the natural topography of Arroyo Alano and One Arroyo. The detailed street-level data offers a clear look at the infrastructure that supported the rapid population increase in the Albuquerque metropolitan area during the early 21st century.
