Location
About the Area
159 Skyview is located in Del Rio, Texas, in Val Verde County. Val Verde County spans the dramatic transition from the Edwards Plateau to the Chihuahuan Desert, centered on Del Rio, a binational community on the Rio Grande across from Ciudad Acuña, Mexico. Amistad Reservoir, one of the largest international lakes in the world, draws anglers and boaters from across Texas and beyond.
The Rio Grande forms Val Verde County's southern and western boundary, and Amistad Reservoir impounds the Rio Grande and Devils River behind Amistad Dam. The Devils River, consistently rated one of the clearest and most pristine rivers in Texas, flows through the northern reaches of the county through remote limestone canyons accessible only by water or primitive roads.
Del Rio had an estimated population of 34,638 as of 2023. The 78840 zip code has a median household income of $59,608, a median home value of $151,500, and a median age of 32.4. The average household size is 2.75 people.
Amistad Reservoir fishing and recreation tourism, Laughlin Air Force Base, cross-border commerce with Ciudad Acuña, ranching, and hunting leases anchor the Val Verde County economy. The Devils River attracts paddlers and anglers seeking a remote wilderness experience, and the county's large ranch tracts offer exceptional hunting for whitetail, mule deer, turkey, and javelina.
