There was a time when Eagle was just a stop sign and a few houses.
I grew up near Boise in the '80s and never even heard of "Eagle," despite regularly making the trip up and down the I84 corridor between Boise and Fruitland.
This is similar to where I grew up. The town it is part of has more than quadrupled in population in 20 years, and the specific "side" of town has grown so much that it now has a locality name, whereas before, if you called it that, people would have just gone, "Huh, isn't that the name of the road?"
It's pretty bizarre. Especially when 90%+ of the growth has come from interstate and third-world (mostly the latter) immigration, lol...
There was a time when Eagle was just a stop sign and a few houses. The growth is staggering at times.
One of the best arcades I have ever been in was in Eagle till Covid. Classic games from the Atari days that very few had.
