Journey reveals reality of the border — and roadblocks to a wall
A USA TODAY NETWORK examination of the 2,000-mile U.S.-Mexico border reveals the challenges and consequences of President Donald Trump’s border wall plan in unprecedented detail.
Texas, which accounts for more than half the border, has almost no fencing, with hundreds of miles of open border at a stretch.
A network investigation of public records found that walling the border in this wide-open area could require disrupting or seizing nearly 5,000 parcels of property.
