2013 Map of Laredo South

About this map

The Rio Grande flows along the western edge of this South Texas landscape, defining the international boundary south of Laredo. The terrain is marked by a complex network of ephemeral drainages such as Chacon Cr and San Idelfonso Cr, which feed into several man-made water features including the Rafael B Garcia Reservoir and the twin Link Lake Number 1 and Link Lake Number 2. Small-scale agricultural and ranching operations are evident at Dairy Crossing, while residential development clusters in settlements like Larga Vista and La Presa. The grid of the Laredo suburban fringe gives way to larger ranch tracts and specialized sites such as the San Ramon Fish Pond, illustrating the transition from urban density to the brush country of Webb County.
