Falcon and the surrounding timber and oil lands of Southern Arkansas are captured here along the borders of Hempstead, Nevada, Lafayette, and Columbia Counties. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of Bayou Dorcheat and numerous tributaries like Tucker Br, Cook Br, and Clear Cr. This era of development is marked by the presence of industrial infrastructure, notably the Falcon Oil and Gas Field and the Stamps Oil and Gas Field, indicating the importance of natural resource extraction in the local economy. Small settlements such as Mount Pleasant and Shiloh serve as anchors for the rural community, connected by a network of county roads including Ar 355 HWY and Ar 53 HWY. For those researching local families, several burial grounds are documented, including Clark Cem, Cummings Cem, and Falcon Cem, alongside landmarks like the Shiloh Lookout Tower.
