Arroyo-City
is an area, or "populated place," located in Cameron County on the southeast tip of Texas. It's about ten miles northeast of the city of Rio Hondo. Arroyo City was settled in the 1860s by Mexican herders and was named after its' location on the Arroyo Colorado. A post office was opened in the community in 1887, but closed in 1907. About 10 people lived in Arroyo City in 1910 and it had two stores. Scattered homes and several businesses remained in the town through the 1970s. Today, it's an unincorporated area marked on Texas state highway maps. Nearby, the town of Rio Hondo has a population of about 2,400 residents. Both towns are part of Cameron County, near South Padre Island, which is one of the fastest growing areas in Texas. Nearby recreational opportunities abound at Isla Blanca Park and Andy Bowie Park. Located on South Padre Island, Isla Blanca has over one mile of white sand beach along the Gulf of Mexico. Andy Bowie Park is at the northern end of South Padre Island and has a trail that is very popular with bird watchers and nature enthusiasts. Things to do in the area include fishing, surfing, boating, swimming, horseback riding and windsurfing.

Arroyo City Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
The southern tip of Texas has a semi-arid climate. This region is the southernmost tip of the American Great Plains Region. Subtropical forests line the Rio Grande River, and ranches dominate the landscape inland. Summers are generally hot and dry but at times can be humid if winds come off the warmer Gulf of Mexico. Rain is more abundant in the coastal regions than inland. Occasionally in winter a strong front can come through, bringing light snow at sea level. The winters in the inland region are cold and dry as Arctic sweeps downward. Snow is a rare occurrence due to the lack of humidity in winter. Tornadoes can occur in this region, but less frequent than in other parts of the state.
