2019 Map of San Ygnacio

About this map

The Rio Grande serves as the international border between the United States and Mexico in this riverfront region of Zapata County. The settlement of San Ygnacio is the primary hub of activity, defined by a grid including Laredo St, Guerrero St, and Grant Ave. Local heritage is anchored by sites like Uribe Cem and the Cementerio del Pueblo, while the Corralitos Airport stands to the north along the main highway corridor. To the southeast, the smaller community of Ramireno is situated near several watercourses such as El Grullo Cr and Arroyo Zapilote. The landscape is etched by numerous drainages, including Arroyo San Francisco and Las Palomas Cr, reflecting the arid environment and the critical importance of the river for these borderlands communities.
