Plainview Commercial Historic District anchors this 2012 survey of the Hale County seat, reflecting its role as a regional trade hub on the Texas High Plains. The map details the academic campus of Wayland Baptist Univ and the residential expansion toward Seth Ward to the northeast. Transportation and aviation infrastructure are prominent, with the Hale County Airport positioned south of the main town and the smaller Horan Airport to the east. Local history researchers will find significant genealogical value in the detailed layout of several burial grounds, including Plainview Cem, the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cem, and the nearby Floral site. The grid of Hale County is further defined by industrial zones along Industrial Blvd and the small settlement of Furguson at the southern edge.
