Close City is an unincorporated community in western Garza County, approximately 6.5 mi (10.5 km) west-northwest of Post.
[4] Construction of Post City began at the original site until surveyors discovered that the town was 11 mi (18 km) from the geographical center of Garza County.
[3] Post ordered work to stop and he shifted resources to a site located nearer the center of the county.
The original town site, called Ragtown, was renamed Close City, named after Edward Bennett "E.B."
The primary crop is cotton, but lesser amounts of grain sorghum and winter wheat are also grown in the area.
