Gil, Dorrego

Gil is a rural area in Coronel Dorrego Partido, in the Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Location

It is located 40 km southeast of the city of Coronel Dorrego, via a rural road that branches off from National Route 3.

History and population

The opening of the railway station of the Defferrari - Coronel Dorrego branch of the Buenos Aires Great Southern Railway in 1929 led to the formation of the town. The subsequent closure of railway services in 1961 caused a population decline.
In the Argentine censuses of 2001 and 2010, it was counted as a dispersed rural population.
