Hidalgo County is located in the southernmost part of Texas along the Rio Grande, within the region known as the Rio Grande Valley. The county was officially formed in 1852, primarily from portions of Cameron and Starr counties. Named after Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, a Roman Catholic priest and patriot who played a significant role in Mexico's independence movement, Hidalgo County remains a region with strong Hispanic influences.
The county's early economy was driven by ranching and agricultural activities, and as such, its early settlers were primarily Spanish-Mexican ranchers. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the arrival of the railroad and an irrigation system transformed the region by contributing to the growth of agriculture and the population. Citrus fruit and vegetable farming became predominant industries. Today, the economy has diversified to include a mix of agriculture, manufacturing, retail, and tourism.
Hidalgo County is known for its rich birdlife, which attracts birdwatchers from all over the world. Santa Ana National Wildlife Refuge, established in 1943, is located within the county and is home to over 400 bird species. One fun fact about Hidalgo County is that it includes the town of Grapevine, which is home to the world's largest "killer bee" statue, a 2,000-pound behemoth dedicated to the Africanized honey bees that have made the area their home.
