The Rio Grande defines the international boundary in this 2022 survey, anchoring a landscape of established settlements and expanding colonias in Starr County. The interconnected communities of Roma, Roma- Los Saenz, and Evergreen showcase a dense street grid organized around thoroughfares like N Grant St and Dr Mario E Ramirez Ave. These residential areas contrast with the surrounding brushland, which is dissected by numerous drainage channels including Arroyo de los Mudos, Arroyo la Mimita, and Ramirez Cr. Local genealogy is well-documented through several burial sites, such as Fronton Cem Number 1, Fronton Cem 2, and the Starr County Precinct Number 2 Cem. Further inland, family names and local geography appear in features like Gongora Hill and the settlement of Guadalupe Guerra, while Fronton Island remains a distinct landmark within the river's course.
