Post, TX

Sitting right where the High Plains drop off the Caprock escarpment, Post offers classic small-town West Texas living about forty miles southeast of Lubbock. Cereal magnate C.W. Post founded the town in the early 1900s as a planned community, leaving behind wide streets, historic brick buildings, and the local Garza Theatre. Farming, ranching, and energy drive the local economy, giving the area a relaxed, hardworking atmosphere. With wide-open skies, a quiet pace, and an easy drive to Lubbock for shopping and healthcare, it is a comfortable spot to settle down.
