- The entire city of Brier is exclusively zoned for single-family homes, making it essentially one giant neighborhood with a single commercial strip.
- When Brier scrambled to incorporate in 1965, its first city hall was literally a rented room in a local resident's house, for just $50 a month.
- Brier was once known for its mink farms before suburban ranch houses took over in the 1950s and 1960s.
