Lubbock has been described as a clean modern city with a small town ambience. It is also an agribusiness center, home to one of the largest inland cotton markets in the country. The city is infused with the cowboy spirit, and is sometimes referred to as the "Hub City," because the local economy runs as a hub for high tech-industries, education, medicine, and agriculture in a multi-county region known as the South Plains in the Texas Panhandle. Lubbock is also a music town both for its live music scene and it's being the birthplace of several key rock and country legends including Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison, Joe Ely, Bob Wills, Tanya Tucker, Jimmie Dale Gilmore, Terry Allen, Butch Hancock, John Denver, Mac Davis and others.
