Housing

Since it’s founding Eagle Lake has grappled with a housing shortage, a situation born from an increasing demand that outpaces the community’s construction capabilities. Eagle Lakes Housing waitlist serves as a testament to this on going challenge.

As Eagle Lakes landscape evolves, so too does the housing narrative, with construction operations shifting towards what locals term “up the hill.” This shift was necessary because of the changing water levels in the older sections, where the foundations of the initial first two houses were laid.

Within the interview segments linked below, Eagle Lake elders vividly recount their memories of housing during that era, providing invaluable insights into the evolution of Eagle Lake’s residential landscape.
