Geography
Population
According to the 2001 census INDEC, the town had a population of 28,620 inhabitants.
Boundaries
The area comprises the territory between the Pacheco lowlands (bajos de Pacheco), Williams Street, the Luján River, the Aliviador Canal, and the Guasú Nambí Stream.
Access
From the city of Tigre, Rincón de Milberg is accessible via several bridges crossing the Reconquista River, which is bordered by Liniers Street. Two of the most important bridges are the one connecting Santa María Avenue (Provincial Route 27) with 25 de Mayo Street, and the bridge connecting Libertador Gral. San Martín Boulevard (known as Avenida de las Palmeras) with José C. Paz Street. The only access point from the city of Benavídez is Provincial Route 27, which takes the name Benavídez Avenue within that city.
History
The lands that form the Rincón de Milberg area were originally owned by López Camelo. Due to an enmity with Pacheco and a desire not to own lands bordering those of his enemy, Camelo offered them for sale to his friend Juan Milberg Dillan, who at the time was the Justice of the Peace in his native Barracas.
After celebrating his marriage to Ángela Arditi Rojas, Milberg Dillan settled in his new Estancia on the newly acquired lands, which he named "El Rincón" (The Corner). The many descendants of this marriage eventually sold off parcels of the land until the area took its current form, which consists of an urban layout featuring a thriving commercial center alongside several gated communities.
Religion
The town is part of the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Isidro.
