In 1903, town promoters W. G. Hardin and A. F. Small purchased the county's central lot, platted the site, and named the town after the Brownfield ranching family. To boost chances of becoming the county seat, they granted a lot to every county voter.
The town's early years saw the construction of essential structures, including the courthouse, school, and churches. Hill's Hotel became the first business, housing the inaugural post office. On June 28, 1904, Brownfield secured the county seat designation, narrowly defeating Gomez in an election. The Brownfield State Bank opened in 1905, serving multiple counties and parts of eastern New Mexico.
Brownfield was incorporated in 1920. Oil wells became operational in 1941, diversifying the town's economic landscape. In 1967, Minnie Hazel "Skip" Bowman, began producing a boxed edition of the card game Skip-Bo in Brownfield.
