A North Little Rock suburb on the Arkansas River

The Crystal Hill neighborhood of North Little Rock sits in the middle of outdoor activity. With the Arkansas River to the south, Camp Robinson to the north and the city’s expansive Burns Park to the east, the neighborhood gives access to some of the area’s renowned amenities. But for others, the appeal of the community’s location has nothing to do with parks. “Most of the housing is up near I-40, which is actually very convenient for people commuting into Little Rock for work,” says Van McClendon, the Pulaski County Planning and Development Director. The highway access also connects the community to restaurants and shopping centers.

Ranch-style and multi-level homes near I-40

Oak trees shade the neighborhood’s streets, which often do not have sidewalks. Jennifer Williams, a Realtor with Century 21 United, says the neighborhood is a place where families tend to stay for a long time. New Traditional ranch-style homes can range from $120,000 to $175,000, while multi-level homes can range from $175,000 to $425,000.

The Big Dam Bridge sits above the Arkansas River

The Arkansas River has white bass, bream and crappie among its fish. Cook’s Landing Park is a place where fisherman often cast their lines. Burns Park is a 1,700-acre expanse with a BMX track in addition to more typical sports facilities and river trails. At 4,226 feet, Big Dam Bridge is the longest pedestrian and bicycle bridge in the U.S. built only for that use. The Camp Robinson Mountain Biking Trails are the oldest such trails in the state, but they require a reservation, as Camp Robinson is the home of the Arkansas National Guard Joint Force Headquarters and other organizations. North Shore Golf Range has its driving range open 24 hours a day.
