The town of Abernathy straddles the boundary between Hale and Lubbock counties, serving as a focal point for this High Plains agricultural landscape. The town's grid is meticulously detailed, showing streets from 1st Street up through 16th Street, while the outlying areas are defined by a rigid section-line road network including Co Rd 325 and Co Rd 5000. To the north, Abernathy Cemetery and the more remote Strip Cemetery provide essential points of reference for local historians and genealogists. The natural topography is subtle, marked by the ephemeral course of Blackwater Draw in the west and several small depressions typical of the Llano Estacado. Further south, the map captures the northern edge of New Deal, connected to its neighbor by the primary north-south highway corridor and a web of farm-to-market roads like Fm 2060 and Fm 597.
