The city was born after the US Civil War when railroads were built through the area and a town was constructed around the railroad depot. The city was incorporated in 1873 and originally consisted of just a post office, drug store, and general store. Soon schools were built and more residents came.

This area is called the Telecom Corridor and consists of several companies that employ almost one hundred thousand people.
