Phillips Town Built by Phillips Petroleum in Panhandle
Phillips, three miles north of Borger, grew from 1925 when Phillips Petroleum entered manufacturing. The town features a large school system, modern high and elementary schools, a 71 grad year, and a strong move to housing to meet war production needs. Local industry dominates, with most taxes paid by Phillips Petroleum. The 18 square mile district supports bands, athletics, and a growing youth program, while most residents shop in Borger, Pampa, or Amarillo.
