About this map

Riviera sits at a critical junction in South Texas, where the Missouri Pacific railroad cuts through the brush country near the Kleberg and Kenedy County line. The settlement pattern here is defined by small, inland water features such as Radicha Lake, Araña Lake, and Seth Waterhole, which supported the region's ranching operations. Numerous family-named windmills, including the Africana Windmill and Rincon de Tio Pancho Windmill, indicate the necessity of groundwater for the livestock economy.
