About
The County
 Established
December 15, 1818, Pulaski County covers 771 square miles. Major
cities include Little Rock, North Little Rock and Jacksonville.
According to the 2006 U.S. Census Population Estimate, 367,319
residents call the county home.
Pulaski County has a diverse population, economy, natural setting
and social structure. Its population mirrors the state's racial,
ethnic, age and gender makeup. Its balanced economy derives from
state and local government, medical, business and industry, finance
and nonprofit sectors. Three of Arkansas's natural divisions
- Ouachita Mountains, Delta, and Coastal Plain - converge in
Pulaski County, presenting a cross section of the state's flora,
fauna and geological diversity. It derives its urban/suburban
character from a widespread network of community organizations,
neighborhood associations, civic clubs, recreational and sports
groups, cultural centers and churches. Located in the geographic
center of Arkansas, Pulaski County is one of the state's five
original counties and has been at the center of Arkansas government,
politics, business, art and culture for almost two centuries.
The Little Rock Regional Chamber of Commerce is the principal business-driven
leadership organization responsible for fostering the economic
growth and development of the Little Rock Region to ensure that
business and industry may operate profitably and enhance the earning
opportunities and quality of life for every citizen.
