Lower-priced homes near farmland in Windmill

On Lubbock’s outskirts, Windmill blends farmland with quaint, comparatively lower-priced homes. Incorporated in 1909, Lubbock has long been reliant on its agricultural industry. Agricultural plains extend far west from the neighborhood, providing open views of the Texas landscape. Homes are arranged along gridded streets, and nearby thoroughfares keep the community connected to the rest of the city.
