The Rio Grande serves as the central geographic and political anchor of this borderland area, winding past the International Bridge that connects the United States and Mexico. On the northern banks, the residential development of Cienegas Terrace and the grid of southwestern Del Rio show a landscape defined by its proximity to the water and major transport routes. Significant local history is preserved at the Old San Felipe Cem and San Felipe Cem near the eastern edge, while the industrial and travel infrastructure is highlighted by the Southern Pacific railroad line and the Del Rio International Airport. The terrain rises toward Round Mtn, overlooking the confluence of San Felipe Cr and the river. This survey captures the specialized border economy and settlement patterns where established neighborhoods and springs like San Felipe Springs meet the expansive ranching and transition lands to the south.
