Land We Look At in Craighead County

  The wooded ridge and the bottomland along local rivers and ditches provide deer, turkey and waterfowl hunting ground.

Terrain, Flood and Zoning Notes

Outside the ridge, the county is flat Delta ground with heavy soils, ditches and drainage districts, and low areas hold water after heavy rain. The Cache River and its tributaries carry floodplain across the western side. The ridge itself has erodible loess soils and rolling slopes. Jonesboro and other cities zone their own land, and unincorporated areas have limited use zoning.

County Resources

Property records in Arkansas come from two county offices: the county assessor, who maintains assessments and tax records, and the circuit clerk, who records deeds. Both can be reached at the county courthouse in Jonesboro and Lake City. These official sources can also help with parcel research:

• Arkansas GIS Office (state mapping and parcel data)
• Arkansas Assessment Coordination Department (county assessors and property tax)
• USDA Web Soil Survey (soil maps for any parcel)
• USDA NASS Arkansas (crop and land statistics)

These are public government resources. We are not affiliated with them.
