History
Established in the 1890s, Slide was then known as Block Twenty. This small town is the second-oldest remaining community in Lubbock County - only Lubbock is older. In 1903, the property was resurveyed by W. R. Standefer, who had a two-mile dispute with the previous surveyor. The pioneers carried timber from Colorado City to build homes and a school. Slide has long been a small community based on cotton farming. And it's never had more than 50 residents.
