Lower priced homes close to several parks
Sitting along Interstate 27, Harwell offers comparatively lower priced homes with convenient access to several parks. Lubbock, which was incorporated in 1909, embraced the country life and has relied mostly on its agricultural industry throughout its history. In the late 1900s, the booming tech industry saw hundreds of manufacturers move to central Texas, with several of these facilities still in operation in the city. The city is also an art hub with museums like the Buddy Holly Center, which celebrates the Lubbock native and showcases the area's role in rock history.
