The border line
A straight international boundary crosses the map, with Arizona's streets on one side and the Sonoran city on the other. It is the most striking line in the composition.

The map
Nogales, Arizona, sits directly on the US–Mexico border, facing its much larger twin, Nogales, Sonora. Few maps show a boundary as plainly. The border runs as a hard straight line along the southern edge of town, and the streets that reach it come to a sudden stop. Just across the line the street pattern carries on, divided but clearly related.
The city fills a set of narrow valleys between rugged desert hills. Its downtown is packed into the lowest ground near the crossing, and neighbourhoods climb the slopes on curving roads. Interstate 19 begins here and runs north toward Tucson, a strong line leading out of the frame.
Nogales is a major port of entry, especially for fresh produce trucked north from Mexico during the winter season. A Nogales map poster shows a city shaped by terrain and by the border at the same time, where hills, valleys and a single straight line define everything.

The historic centre fills a narrow valley near the port of entry, with commercial blocks packed tightly into the low ground between the hills.
The interstate starts here and heads north through the desert, and it is unusual for using metric distance signs. On the map it is the main route out of town.

Why Nogales
Nogales matters to many families whose lives cross the border every day, and to people who grew up in the hills on either side. A map of the city shows that shared geography honestly and clearly.
