2010 Map of Hobbs West

About this map

Hobbs serves as the focal point of this Lea County landscape during the first decade of the 21st century, revealing an urban center heavily influenced by the regional energy economy. The extensive Hobbs Oil Field and industrial sites like the Airport Pit and Lea County Pit speak to the area's resource-driven development. To the south, the smaller community of Nadine sits at the junction of several regional routes, including the Monument Hwy. Within the city limits, civic and community life is anchored by the Hobbs Post Office and local landmarks such as Memorial Park Cemetery and Memdry Gardens. The presence of the Hobbs Airport and the W Hobbs South Byp illustrates the modern transportation infrastructure required to support this desert city's growth and its connection to the surrounding high plains.
