Where We Drill: Hidalgo County's Metro

McAllen–Edinburg–Mission, TX HDD service area — 1 component counties, principal and satellite cities — The the Rio Grande Valley service area — U.S. Census Bureau county boundaries; cities marked are where crews most often mobilize.

The service area is the OMB-defined McAllen–Edinburg–Mission metro — Hidalgo County in full, one county carrying a string of grown-together cities and the delta between them. Jurisdiction pages below carry the local picture: the corridors, the clay, and the authorities whose permits govern crossings.

Hidalgo County

The whole delta map: cities, colonias, farm grid, and the floodways through it.

Edinburg

The county seat: university engine, healthcare growth, and northward tempo.

Mission

The west anchor: citrus heritage, trade corridors, and growth along the foothills of nothing.

Pharr

The trade engine: the produce bridge, the cold-storage belt, and logistics uptime.

All component counties: Hidalgo.
