Cliffside is an unincorporated community in Potter County, located in the U.S. state of Texas.

History

Prior to the community's existence, the Fort Worth and Denver Railway opened a station here in 1888. The first schoolhouse opened in 1905, with the town being platted out on August 5, 1915. From 1908–1917, a Post Office operated out of a general store, but has discontinued due to its nearness to Amarillo, Texas.
