2002 Map of Hidalgo
USGS Topo · Published 2003About this map
The Rio Grande serves as the international dividing line in this detailed study of the border region near the start of the 21st century. On the Texas side, the city of Hidalgo shows a dense cluster of civic and educational landmarks, including Hidalgo High Sch, Hidalgo Elem Sch, and Salinas Elem Sch. The landscape is defined by the heavy management of water, featuring the Canal Principal, Guillermo Rode, and the McAllen Pumping Station, which supported the region's agricultural and municipal needs. To the south, the sprawling urban grid of Reynosa extends toward Laguna La Escondida, connected to its northern neighbor via the McAllen-Hidalgo-Reynosa Toll Bridge and the International Bridge. Preservation efforts are visible in the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge, which protects the winding riverbanks and the Rincon Bend.
