About this map

The settlement of Ricardo serves as the focal point of this South Texas landscape, situated along the corridor formed by Hwy 77 Bus and the Union Pacific rail lines. The area is characterized by a network of drainage creeks, including San Fernando Cr, Santa Gertrudis Cr, and Jaboncillos Cr, which wind through the coastal plains. These waterways define the rural tracts and the placement of local infrastructure, such as the Bordo Nuevo Windmill located to the northeast.

Institutional and recreational spaces are significant markers on this terrain. The southern reaches of the Kingsville Naval Air Station occupy the northern edge of the map, while Dick Kleberg Park Lake provides a notable landmark near the crossing of Escondido Cr. The grid of farm-to-market roads, including Fm-1118, illustrates the organized agricultural and residential expansion typical of Kleberg County in the early 21st century.
