The state of Arkansas definitely received a boost in the national spotlight due to the eventful presidency of the Natural State's favorite son, Bill Clinton. Although some of the attention lavished on Arkansas due to Clinton can be classified as negative, overall the entire experience was a positive one.

That's because more Americans are aware of the excellent opportunities provided by such excellent Arkansas cities as Jacksonville. Affectionately known as the City of Choice, Jacksonville is home to approximately 30,000 residents. Located in beautiful Pulaski County, Jacksonville has the unique advantage of being close to the big city amenities of Little Rock while still retaining that Southern small-town charm.

The third largest city in the Little Rock-North Little Rock Metropolitan Statistical Area, Jacksonville benefits from excellent location. Just fifteen miles northeast of downtown Little Rock, this warm and friendly community exemplifies the best of central Arkansas.

First settled around 1823, Jacksonville is best known for being home to the Little Rock Air Force Base. Although the city prides itself on being a community where everybody knows each other's name, Jacksonville is becoming one of Arkansas' fastest growing communities. With its beautiful landscape, growing local economy, and excellent schools, it's no wonder that Jacksonville is quickly being one of the Natural State's most acclaimed wonders.
