Faulkner County, Arkansas
Faulkner County · Conway the city is the seat · Conway County is Morrilton · a campus is not this hall · Little Rock is the capital of Arkansas
Conway the city is the hall. Conway County is Morrilton. Little Rock is the capital.
Faulkner County, Arkansas, was erected 12 April 1873 from Conway and Pulaski and named for Sanford C. Faulkner. Conway the city is the seat. It is a city in central Arkansas, among the State’s largest. It is not the capital of Arkansas. Little Rock is. This is not Conway County. Conway County’s seat is Morrilton — already unique as 0126. Do not paste Morrilton onto Locust. Greenbrier, Vilonia, Mayflower, Wooster, Guy, Enola, Holland, Twin Groves, and Damascus (part) are cities and towns in this county — they are not the hall. University campuses sit in Conway. They are not 801 Locust. They are not this Sheriff. This is not Pulaski County. This is not Faulkner County, Mississippi. Cadron was an early settlement. It is not the hall now.
Places include Conway, Greenbrier, Vilonia, Mayflower, Wooster, Guy, Enola, Holland, Twin Groves, and Damascus. 2020 census: 123,498 — fifth-most populous Arkansas county. This page is Side One for the place. The Sheriff’s job — remainder patrol and two county houses this badge still holds — is taught at Office of the Sheriff — Faulkner County.
Thirteen Justices. Judge at 801 Locust. They fund. They do not hire the Sheriff.
Faulkner is a County Judge plus a thirteen-member Quorum Court. The Judge lists at 801 Locust Street, Conway, AR 72034. They fund roads, Unit 1, Unit 2, and the Sheriff’s budget. They do not hire the Sheriff. The people do. Conway City Council is a city body. Morrilton is Conway County. The Arkansas General Assembly sits in Little Rock. None of those is this Quorum Court.
The courthouse lists at 801 Locust Street — 1936 brick and concrete (Wittenberg and Deloney), National Register, third courthouse on the same plot Asa Robinson donated. Quorum Court meets Meeting Room A, second floor. County Clerk is 801 Locust. Circuit Clerk is 724 Locust Avenue. Justice Building is 510 South German Lane. Confirm at faulknercountyar.gov before you drive. Morrilton is Conway County. Little Rock is Pulaski. Searcy is White.
The Sheriff is four years, Article 7, § 46 / Amendment 95, on the gubernatorial table. Last regular Tuesday, 8 November 2022. Next regular Tuesday, 3 November 2026. Preferential primary Tuesday, 3 March 2026 (already sat). Take office 1 January 2027 (A.C.A. § 21-1-102). The Governor is 2026. That is a different desk in Little Rock. Justices of the Peace are two years.
Central Arkansas on I-40. This is not Pulaski. This is not a campus as this hall.
Central Arkansas. Interstate 40 is the spine. Cadron Creek and Lake Conway sit on this map. U.S. 64 and U.S. 65 cross it. Van Buren is north. Cleburne is northeast. White is east. Lonoke is southeast. Pulaski is south — Little Rock is that hall and the capital. Perry is southwest. Conway County is west — Morrilton is that hall. Staff who paste a campus onto Locust, or treat Morrilton as this oval, or file Conway the city as the capital, or file this as Pulaski-with-a-campus, are on the wrong county.
How a Faulkner public finds Locust, German Lane, and 724 Locust
Courthouse / County Judge / County Clerk / Sheriff HQ / Detention Unit 1: 801 Locust Street, Conway, AR 72034 — Sheriff (501) 450-4914. Office main entry also lists the 1400 block of Robinson Avenue. Detention Unit 2 / booking: 500 South German Lane — (501) 328-4160. Circuit Clerk: 724 Locust Avenue. Justice Building: 510 South German Lane. Confirm live doors at faulknercountyar.gov and fcso.ar.gov before you drive. A student who only knows a campus photograph, or a Little Rock postcard, or Morrilton, has not found this campus.
Unit 1 and Unit 2 still jail. Conway PD does not. ADC does not.
Crime in unincorporated Faulkner — Greenbrier remainder, Vilonia remainder, Mayflower remainder, Guy country — is this Sheriff. Crime in Conway is often Conway Police. Crime in Greenbrier, Vilonia, or Mayflower is often those municipal departments. This Sheriff is not those badges. FCSO lists Unit 1 at 801 Locust (maximum, 118) and Unit 2 at 500 South German Lane (booking, 218 males / 88 females). Those houses are this badge’s shop. They are not campus security. They are not ADC. Do not send a family looking for a county booking to a campus, to Morrilton, or to Little Rock.
Civil process and court security at 801 Locust are the Sheriff. Rights do not change at a campus parking lot. Remedy for Conway Police is the City. Remedy for a Sheriff’s paper is the Sheriff. Relief when I-40 ices is this count first.
What central Arkansas actually watches from Conway the city
Court calendars at 801 Locust. A wreck on I-40. High water on Cadron Creek. A night road outside Greenbrier. Coordination with Conway Police, Greenbrier, Vilonia, Mayflower, and ASP without becoming those departments. Coordination with Conway County’s Sheriff is mutual aid between two offices, not a merger, and not a reason to file Morrilton as this hall. A campus photograph does not steal the seat. Little Rock remains the capital. Conway the city remains the hall.
