2019 Map of Randado

About this map

Randado serves as the primary landmark in this South Texas landscape, situated at the eastern edge of the survey area where the boundary between Zapata and Jim Hogg counties is defined. The terrain is characterized by a network of intermittent waterways, including the winding paths of Escobas Cr, Los Tanques Cr, and Fandango Cr. These drainages shape the local geography, reflecting the arid environment of the Brush Country. A sparse network of rural roads such as Rancho Blanco Rd, Zachary Ranch Rd, and La Violeta Rd connect scattered ranching interests, highlighting the low-density settlement patterns typical of the region in the early twenty-first century. This topography shows the vital connection between water access and land use in this part of the state, anchored by the passage of FM 649.
