2010 Map of Las Cruces
USGS Topo · Published 2010About this map
The Rio Grande and its intricate network of irrigation channels define this high-desert landscape, where the fertile Mesilla Valley supports a dense cluster of historic communities. A complex system of laterals and drains, such as the Dona Ana Lateral and Mesilla Lateral, crisscross the region, illustrating the agricultural backbone that has sustained Las Cruces and its satellite settlements. To the south, the presence of New Mexico State University marks the area's growth as an educational center, while several historic post offices in Fairacres, Mesilla, and Mesilla Park signify the established local identities of these towns.
