The US-Mexican Border is the international border between the United States of America and the country of Mexico. Most of this 3,141 Kilometers (1,952 miles) border is defined by the course of the Rio Grande River (Rio Bravo del Norte, as it is known in Mexico) which runs from Ciudad Juarez-El Paso into the Gulf of Mexico, close to the cities of Matamoros-Brownsville.

The four US states that border Mexico, with their respective border lengths are, from west to east:

  • California (capital: Sacramento) - 220 Kilometers (137 miles).
  • Arizona (capital: Phoenix) - 564 Kilometers (350 miles).
  • New Mexico (capital: Santa Fe) - 338 Kilometers (210 miles).
  • Texas (capital: Austin) along the Rio Grande River - 2,019 Kilometers (1,254 miles).
