Becton is an unincorporated community in northeastern Lubbock County, Texas, United States.

Becton received mail via the Lorenzo Star Route until 1928 when the Fort Worth and Denver Railway commenced its operations.

Oldtimers claim the post office was open until 1949, although some reports state it closed in 1943.

Situated in a fertile agricultural region, the community saw growing prosperity following the installation of irrigation.

W. E. Bledsoe built the first school, a one-room structure that housed pupils for two terms.
