== Fun facts ==
* The community developed as a trading center for agricultural products, becoming a trading center for mohair and wool after 1925, as sheep ranching in the area increased. Local ranchers also began raising cattle and goats, as well as polo ponies for eastern markets.
* In 1961, the first F-105 fighter-bomber delivered to the US Air Force 49th Tactical Fighter Wing was named the "Kordel-Eden", after Kordel, Germany, and the pilot's hometown of Eden.
* The same year that Eden incorporated, the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway completed a 98 mi (158 km) line between Eden and Lometa.
* Eden has very little in the way of amenities to offer. It has dollar stores, Subway, a landing strip, Lowe's Market, a few local restaurants and businesses, Slumber Inn, Concho Springs Golf Course, a sports complex, a few public battle fields, and that's about it.
