About this map

Educational and medical institutions define the eastern half of Abilene in the late 1950s, a period of significant local development. The city's academic character is anchored by Hardin-Simmons University, Abilene Christian College, and McMurry College, while essential social infrastructure is visible at the Abilene State Hospital and the Hendrick Home for Children. The urban footprint transitions into rural Taylor County, marked by the industrial presence of the Field Oil area and numerous Gravel Pits.
