2019 Map of Pharr

About this map

Pharr and eastern McAllen are characterized by a dense, intricate network of residential colonias that defined the Lower Rio Grande Valley landscape in the late 2010s. The map illustrates a unique pattern of unincorporated and annexed neighborhoods, such as Bryan's Addition Colonia and Thrasher Terrace Colonia, which interlock with the established city grids. This period shows significant aviation and industrial infrastructure, ranging from the large Mc Allen Miller International Airport to the smaller Mid-Valley Dusters Inc Airport. The water management system is equally complex, featuring the McAllen Main Canal and the Boeye Reservoir serving the agricultural and urban needs of the region. Local heritage sites like Guadalupe Cem and San Juan Cem remain as physical anchors amidst the rapid residential expansion of Lantana Colonia and Starr Colonia.
