How about "Spralling Boomtown". At least that would be descriptive.

Boomtown implies the place is doing well.
Not sure that fits, actually.
I've heard "the hood" used.
Personally I think we're 10 years away from seeing any incorporation taking place. Economy's not great, and the additional bureaucracy (mayor, mayor's office, council, etc., municipal buildings, etc.) in and of itself will create a huge expense.

No worse than writing Ranchos de Taos. |
