2016 Map of Los Ebanos

About this map

The Rio Grande carves a complex series of oxbows along the international border between Texas and Tamaulipas on this 2016 survey. The small settlement of Los Ebanos sits at the northernmost point of a dramatic river bend, characterized by a grid of local streets including Jose Garcia St and Julio Garza St. To the east, the historic community of Sam Fordyce and the village of Havana are connected by Military Rd, a corridor that follows the river's path through the southern reaches of Hidalgo County. The presence of a Po indicates the continued role of these small towns as local hubs. This modern mapping captures the hydrological landscape where the river's movement creates natural boundaries, alongside inland water features like La Joya Lake and transit routes such as Patricio Perez Blvd.
