About this map

Jacksonville occupies the northwestern corner of this Pulaski County landscape, where urban streets like W Main St and King ST give way to the expansive wetlands of the Arkansas lowlands. The geography is defined by a complex network of slow-moving waterways, including Bayou Meto, Ash Slough, and Bayou Two Prairie. These waters feed into significant local landmarks such as Keller Lake and Hills Lake, illustrating the hydrologic character of the Holland Bottoms region.

Genealogists and local historians will find numerous family and community burial sites scattered across the rural sections, including McCraw Cem, Bethany Cem, and the Lone Cypress Cem. The transition from the developed center of Jacksonville to the unincorporated areas of Kerr and Union Valley reveals the persistence of small-scale aviation at Perrys Airport and the agricultural parcels that border the Lone Cypress Brake.
