2022 Map of Yturria

About this map

Yturria serves as the primary focal point of this South Texas coastal plain survey, situated along the corridor of U.S. Route 77 and the N Frontage Rd. The landscape is defined by its transition between Kenedy and Willacy counties, where the land is partitioned into large agricultural tracts and ranches. Local heritage is visible in the network of family-named roads such as Garcia Ranch Rd, Thomas Ranch Rd, and Simon Gomez Rd, reflecting the deep-rooted ranching history of the Rio Grande Valley region. The southern portion of the map shows more intensive irrigation and drainage development, anchored by the W Main Drain and a grid of access roads including Cemetery Rd and Gonzales Rd. This area illustrates the specialized infrastructure required for farming in the semiarid brushlands of the Texas coast.
