Abilene is located in north central Texas at an elevation of 1750 feet. Located in Taylor county, the city covers an area of 121.5 square miles and has approximately 125,000 residents.
In recent years, the city has diversified its economic base. In the latter part of the 20th century, the economy of Abilene was based on three pillars - oil, agriculture and the military. Following the devastating oil bust of the 80s, Abilene was the state's first city to adopt a half-cent sales tax to fund economic development activities.

In recent years, the city has diversified its economic base. In the latter part of the 20th century, the economy of Abilene was based on three pillars - oil, agriculture and the military. Following the devastating oil bust of the 80s, Abilene was the state's first city to adopt a half-cent sales tax to fund economic development activities. Since that time, more than 3,000 jobs have been created or retained due to the aid these funds have provided either existing or new businesses. In 1990, Abilene was named an All-America City for its efforts to diversify.
The turn of the century was eventful too. 2001 brought a deployment of troops from Dyess Air Force Base to assist in the war on terrorism in both Afghanistan and Iraq. The city continues to recognize and honor its citizens who serve their country day in and day out. In 2004, Abilenes future was linked to the past with the opening of Frontier Texas! This new state of the art multimedia museum gives visitors a glimpse of early frontier life in the region.
Since its beginnings in 1881, Abilene has moved from a cattle-shipping prairie town to a metropolis on the plains. The city's population continues to grow, proving that the citizens of Abilene are people of both vision and determination.
