Lubbock · Lubbock County

The city end
of the I-27 commute.

Lubbock is where most Abernathy crews end up living anyway: the airport, the hospitals, every big-box store and a thousand places to eat, twenty minutes down I-27 from the gate. Our Jackson apartment puts you in the middle of it—a furnished one-bedroom with a full kitchen, rented by the week, where the price you see is the price you pay.

Why crews pick Lubbock

Also known as TeraWulf Abernathy · Fluidstack Texas · Anthropic data center Texas · Hale County data center

Two big AI builds are going up at Abernathy, twenty-odd miles north of Lubbock on I-27: the TeraWulf–Fluidstack campus (168 MW, commissioning in the second half of 2026) and Aligned's Project Caprock, a 540 MW, 313-acre campus that broke ground in April 2026 with its first building due in early 2027. Between them that is years of electrical, mechanical and civil work within a short drive of the city.

Abernathy itself has about 2,800 people and not many beds, so the commute runs the other way: crews live in Lubbock and drive north. I-27 is a straight four-lane shot from the north loop to the Abernathy exits, and a normal morning is twenty to twenty-five minutes.

The Jackson is a furnished one-bedroom apartment in central Lubbock that sleeps four, with a full kitchen, its own bathroom and a key you keep for the stay. It rents by the week, utilities included, and the rate you see is the rate you pay—hotel tax is already in it. A 28-night stay prices as a monthly term.

The price is the price

Lubbock's hotel tax runs 15%. Our Lubbock rate already includes it, so the nightly, weekly and monthly figures you see at booking are what your card is charged—no tax line added at the end.

I-27 north, every morning

From central Lubbock take I-27 north past the loop; Abernathy is the next town. Leave before seven and you miss the Tech traffic entirely.

Weekly, then extend

A 28-night stay prices as a monthly term in the app, and every extension is one you approve—no auto-renewals.

Straight answers

What crews ask about Abernathy campus.

How far is Lubbock from the Abernathy data centers?
About twenty miles up I-27 from the north side of the city—twenty to twenty-five minutes on a normal morning. The sites sit on the edge of Abernathy in Hale County.
Does the price include hotel tax?
Yes. The Lubbock rate is quoted with state, city and county hotel occupancy tax already included, so the total you see when you book is the total you pay.
Is this a hotel room or an apartment?
An apartment: a furnished one-bedroom with a full kitchen and bathroom that sleeps up to four. You get a key for the length of the stay.
Can I book by the month?
Book weekly. A 28-night stay is priced as a monthly term automatically, and you can extend from there.
