The Rio Grande corridor northwest of El Paso defines this landscape, where the fertile Mesilla Valley meets the rising slopes of the Franklin Mountains. Irrigation and water management are central to the region's development, evidenced by an extensive network of ditches and drains including the Vinton Drain, Anthony Drain, and Three Saints Lateral. This 2019 survey documents a complex borderland geography where Anthony and Canutillo serve as primary hubs, surrounded by smaller residential clusters like R W Jones Colonia and Green Acres Colonia.
