Littlefield seemed a little strange to us because of the odd pockets of desperate poverty, the ramshackle houses scattered about, so near to neighborhoods of obvious affluence. In Lubbock we have a codes enforcement department and a health department, even though they aren't adequately funded. Littlefield seems to have nothing of the kind. Residential streets are not even paved, in some cases, within the city limits! Mosquitoes were a major problem. I doubt that they do any spraying. We got the impression that in Littlefield it is every man for himself.
