SOUTH TEXAS

:''For the nuclear power plant, see: South Texas Nuclear Generating Station''


'South Texas' is a region of the U.S. state of Texas which lies roughly south of, or beginning at, San Antonio.
The region includes the communities of Alice, Beeville, Brownsville, Corpus Christi, Eagle Pass, Edna, Kingsville, Laredo, McAllen, and Victoria, among others.
South Texas should not be confused with the Rio Grande Valley. All four counties which make up the Rio Grande Valley belong to the "South Texas" designation, but not all of South Texas is part of the Rio Grande Valley.

Some good books to read about the native and non-native Latino population are ''Brownsville'' by Oscar Casares, ''Rio Grande Wetbacks'' by Carol Norquest, ''...And the Earth Did Not Devour Him'' by Thomas Rivera, as well as other popular books, ''Border Towns'' and ''Poncho''.
One might look at the writings of J. Frank Dobie, who was born and raised in South Texas, to begin to understand the Anglo viewpoint of the current society of the area.
