Protection is the central hub of this Comanche County landscape, organized by a precise grid of streets such as N Broadway Ave and E Main St. This 2012 survey illustrates the essential infrastructure of a Great Plains community, including the Protection Municipal Airport, the Po, and the Protection Wastewater Treatment Facility. The surrounding territory is defined by the drainage patterns of several seasonal watercourses, most notably Bluff Cr and Cavalry Cr. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Protection Cem situated northwest of the main town site, while the branching reaches of Kiowa Cr and Buzzard Cr further delineate the rural sections surrounding the settlement.
