About Altheimer

Tucked into the flat farmland of the Arkansas Delta, Altheimer got its start as a bustling railroad stop and cotton shipping hub. Today, it is a quiet, close-knit rural community where wide-open fields and slow-paced living define the scenery. The historic Front Street area still marks the heart of town, while surrounding landmarks like the historic Elms property and nearby Lake Dick nod to the area's deep agricultural roots.

With around 700 residents, Altheimer offers a peaceful, small-town atmosphere halfway between Pine Bluff and Stuttgart. That location puts locals within an easy drive of regional employers, healthcare, and retail in Pine Bluff, as well as world-class duck hunting around Stuttgart. For anyone looking for an affordable, unhurried spot surrounded by Delta countryside, Altheimer provides plenty of space and quiet southern charm.
