A community in south Fayetteville
Fayette Junction originated as a hub for Fayetteville's canning and lumber industries because of its location along a rail line. Today, industrial corridors include major local employers like Conagra Foods and Tyson Foods. The area is also seeing some new apartment buildings and homes being constructed as the city grows in population. "Fayette Junction is considered south Fayetteville and is a quickly developing area due to rapid investments in the bike trail, library and nearby arts corridor," says Adam Flemming, a Fayetteville resident and Realtor with Keller Williams Market Pro Realty. Fayette Junction also attracts residents looking for access to downtown and the University of Arkansas.

Access to a major trail system and Fayetteville Country Club
The popular greenspace, Walker Park, features trails along natural slopes and is the only skatepark in the city. The public space is a gateway to routes that twist and turn through Fayetteville alongside several creeks, including the Frisco Trail and the Razorback Greenway. "Kessler Mountain Regional Park connects to the Razorback Greenway, and it goes all the way to Bella Vista. There are access points that go through Walker Park, the library and the arts corridor," Flemming says. The corridor, referred to as the Ramble, is a 50-acre space along the greenway with art installations, murals and statues, presenting a blend of natural scenery and local culture. Greathouse Park is a smaller space with a playground and additional walking trails.
Mountainside tee times are sought after at the Fayetteville Country Club, one of the oldest country clubs in northwest Arkansas. "The club is a very desirable experience with golf courses and the pool. It's a big social scene," Flemming says.

A market with midcentury homes and new constructions
Fayette Junction has several architectural styles, from midcentury ranch homes in well-established neighborhoods to new constructions and townhouses along Razorback Road. Most homes over 2,000 square feet sit on the eastern side of School Avenue, within walking distance of the golf course. Buyers can find homes with views of the greens and fairways inside Country Club Estates. Pricing starts at $200,000 for a midcentury ranch, with larger homes near the country club reaching up to $700,000. Townhouses often enter the market between $240,000 and $440,000. Flemming says that housing costs for the area are on the upswing because of its proximity to Interstate 49 and downtown Fayetteville.
The community has a moderate risk of flooding. Although the Ozark Mountains may provide insulation from severe storms, northwest Arkansas is susceptible to tornadoes, which have affected nearby cities in recent years. Fayetteville's Emergency Operations Plan works with local and state governments to assist in disaster responses.

Shopping on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard
Groceries and everyday essentials can be found at Walmart Supermarket or Aldi on Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. Target and Whole Foods Market are less than 10 miles north. Flemming says locals go a few miles north to dine downtown since the area contains few restaurants. He recommends Penguin Ed's BBQ, a local chain splashed with penguin decor, and his favorite, Loafin Joe's, a dining spot that offers subs and house made chips. Feed and Folly is a popular restaurant with a rooftop bar for southern views of the Ozarks.

Traveling by I-49
The area is primarily car-dependent, so most travel by car. Interstate 49, a heavily trafficked regional freeway, borders the western edge. However, there are a few bus routes available, all free to the public. Razorback Transit is managed by the University of Arkansas and Ozark Regional Transit brings commuters to cities in the north. Northwest Health emergency department stands less than 5 miles away.
