About Crawford County

Crawford County is part of the Fort Smith metropolitan area and benefits from its proximity to the state's third-largest city. Van Buren, the county seat, is a historic community along the Arkansas River that was once a major stop on the Butterfield Overland Mail route. The city's downtown Main Street district features preserved Victorian-era commercial buildings. Alma, the county's second-largest city, is known as the “Spinach Capital of the World” due to its connection with the Allen Canning Company. The county has a mix of small-city commercial activity, agriculture, and commuter residents who work in the Fort Smith area. Crawford County's location along Interstate 40 and the Arkansas River makes it a transportation corridor for the region.
