We are within short walking distance from the university, downtown, shopping, and great restaurants. Fayetteville is a college town in Washington County, Arkansas and home to the University of Arkansas. As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 58,047. However, a special census completed in June 2006 showed the population to be 67,158. [1] The city is the third most populous in Arkansas and serves as the county seat of Washington CountyGR6. It was also ranked 8th on Forbes Magazine's Top 10 Best Places in America for Business and Careers. Fayetteville is in the Ozark Mountains. Fayetteville was also the first home of Bill and Hillary Clinton while they both taught law at the University of Arkansas School of Law.Some of Fayetteville's highlights include the town square, where a farmer's market is held from April through November, and Dickson Street, a main street that is lined with shops and restaurants and that leads through town to the University of Arkansas. The Walton Arts Center, located on Dickson Street (and named after members of the Walton family) is a performing arts center that puts on plays, concerts and other cultural events. Fayetteville was also the first home of Bill and Hillary Clinton where they were married. The house has now been turned into a museum highlighting his early political life and features campaign memorabilia, a replica of Hillary's wedding dress, a photo gallery, and footage from his early campaign commercials[1].
The Fayetteville Public Library, founded in 1916, relocated in October 2004 into a $23 million dollar building, which was the first "green" building in Fayetteville. On June 3, 2006, the library celebrated its 90th birthday. The Blair Library was awarded the 2005 Thomson Gale Library Journal Library of the Year award, and, as a testament to its popularity, has seen its popularity increase dramatically, with three times more items checked out in 2005 than in 1997 [3]. The library includes a local coffeeshop, Arsaga's, and hosts several events, including film festivals, book signings, and public forums throughout the year.
