McAllen sits in the low-elevation coastal plain of the Rio Grande Valley, characterized by flat, subtropical thornscrub, citrus groves, irrigation canals and resaca wetlands along the U.S.–Mexico border. The small number of falls within fifty miles are typically drive-up roadside cascades tucked into riparian corridors or man-made channels; these short, easy visits contrast with regional birding, wetland habitat and the rarity of flowing water in an otherwise flat, arid-appearing landscape.
