In April 1974, the communities of Bruceville and Eddy incorporated as a single entity known as Bruceville-Eddy.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.bruceville-eddytx.com | title = Welcome to Bruceville-Eddy, Texas | publisher = City of Bruceville-Eddy, Texas | access-date = September 12, 2009 | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20081220143851/http://www.bruceville-eddytx.com/ | archive-date = December 20, 2008 }}</ref> The population stood at 1,038 in 1980 and grew slightly to 1,075 by 1990.
