2017 Map of Golden City

About this map

Golden City and the northern reaches of the Ouachita National Forest define this landscape on the border of Logan and Scott Counties. The terrain transitions from the low-lying valley of the Petit Jean River and Greasy Creek in the north to the significant elevations of Buck Knob and Huckleberry Mountain in the south. This 2017 data reflects a long-established rural settlement pattern where family and community heritage is preserved in numerous burial grounds, including Hamby Cemetery, Hopewell Cemetery, and Mixon Cemetery. The road network, featuring routes like Carolan Road and Jack Creek Road, connects small communities such as Carolan and Mixon to the surrounding timberlands and river bottoms, illustrating the enduring agricultural and forest-based character of this Arkansas region.
