Higbee sits along the southern edge of the Purgatoire River valley, serving as a focal point for this section of Otero County. The settlement is connected by the historic route of State Hwy 109 and Spring Valley Rd, with the nearby Higbee Cem offering a point of interest for genealogists tracing local families. The landscape is defined by the canyon systems of the Comanche National Grassland, where the Ninemile Canal indicates early agricultural efforts to divert water through the Ninemile Valley.
