Prairie View's roots trace to Alta Vista, the plantation home of Jared E. and Helen Marr Kirby. Alta Vista was one of four plantations and several small farms owned by their family in the Best and Iron creeks areas. Kirby was a colonel in the Confederate Army, and his home was Gen. Edmund Kirby Smith's headquarters during the later phases of the Civil War. In 1892 Duncan D. Robertson established the first post office in Prairie View in his own home. The presence of an academic institution contributed, significantly to the area's growth as did agriculture. In the late 1980s, the town remained both a college and an agricultural community. It got its water from the Prairie View A&M University water system and was dependent upon the university for fire protection, ambulance service, and medical service.

With such a rich, developmental history and productive educational system, it's important that residents of Prairie View be as safe as possible in all of their activities to preserve what they've already created as well as to ensure they continue to develop the area.
