The RGV Business Journal’s Data Center turns numbers into strategy for investors on the border

Numbers prove the border is not just a line on a map. It exists, instead, as a living artery that pulses with people, goods, and capital.

Anyone who has watched the bridges that link South Texas and northern Mexico — from Starr County to the Gulf — has seen the border’s constant motion. Trucks roll north in endless files. Workers walk south in the evening light. Families push strollers, and shoppers carry bags. The movement never stops, and the numbers tell a story as vivid as the scene.

The Rio Grande Valley Business Journal has begun collecting that story in a single digital home to help everyone acquire a greater understanding of the region’s vitality and its future.

Where the border comes to life

Our Data Center gathers information that used to be scattered across government portals and forgotten spreadsheets and offers it in clean and concise manner.
