The Map Page -- July 22, 2022

Earlier this morning I told a reader it was a straight shot, six hours from Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, to Austin, Texas.  I was wrong. It's four hours.

Neuvo Laredo: state of Tamaulipas. Etymology unknown. 

Two links:

Nuevo Leon is a weirdly shaped state that managed to have its border drawn in a way that gave it just a little 9-mile border with the United States and more specifically the state of Texas.

In the US, we gerrymander voting districts.

In Mexico, they gerrymander entire states.

Elon Musk: brilliant. Attention to detail.


 

One more reason Tesla moved to Texas.

Also, steady stream of new landscapers to mow the lawns around his new facilities.
