Calexico
Mexicali lies in the Mexicali Valley, a broad alluvial plain on the northern edge of Baja California shaped by the Colorado River delta. Directly south of the United States border, it forms a continuous binational urban area with Calexico, California, and serves as the capital of the state of Baja California. Central streets combine commercial blocks, border infrastructure and palms, while the surrounding valley remains an important agricultural district. Founded in 1903, Mexicali developed through irrigation, rail links and cross-border trade; its name combines “Mexico” and “California.” The city’s character is closely tied to the international boundary along its northern edge.

Calexico is best known in California for its location directly on the United States–Mexico border, opposite Mexicali. The New River crosses the city on its northward course through the Imperial Valley toward the Salton Sea, placing Calexico in a desert basin shaped by irrigation and farming. Its name joins “California” and “Mexico,” reflecting a borderland identity shared with its much larger neighbour across the international line. The Calexico West port of entry is one of the city’s defining civic spaces, linking local streets and commerce to Mexicali.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
