Why?
I grew up in that area and it feels like the middle of nowhere...
I need your native advice-- transferring there in 10 days. Wife's job sent us there and she did let me go along!!!

It's really not that bad... definitely much less to do than DFW... many people are close-minded, and everyone votes Republican...
This all could be good or bad depending on the person you're talking to.
As far as insurance, it depends on what you're selling. BCBS is very competitive on the health side. If you're willing to work in the rural towns, you will do pretty well with most insurance lines.
But, competition is pretty fierce and there's not a huge population in the Panhandle.
If there's anything specific I can answer, let me know.

Well, I am considering going captive with Reliable, or some other home service outfit to get my feet on the ground. I am supposing that there is no MA market there? I see that Physician's Mutual is strong, along with MOO. We bought a house a couple of weeks ago and we could not believe the housing market-- they think they are Highland Park or something...

Don't get me wrong... Amarillo is a great place to live if you're white, Christian, Republican and think everyone else should be.
You'll also love Amarillo if you enjoy sub-zero weather in the winter and snow, constant wind, and 100+ degree summers.
