2016 Map of Edcouch

About this map

The agricultural landscape of eastern Hidalgo County is defined by a dense network of irrigation and drainage infrastructure, including the Main Supply Canal, the Donna Drain, and the expansive North Floodway. This 2016 survey captures the sister cities of Elsa and Edcouch along the southern corridor, where the grid of city streets like 5th Ave and E Ciro Caceres Ave gives way to the broad, mile-section rural roads of the Rio Grande Valley. Genealogists will find several notable burial grounds across this quadrangle, including Cementerio Anahuac, the San Jose Ranch Cem, and the uniquely named Cementerio de las Burras in the northeast. Small-scale aviation is represented by Skalitsky Airport, while the settlement of Monte Alto anchors the northern portion of the map near the Valley Acres Reservoir.
