About Junction City

Junction City is a small Union County city on the Arkansas-Louisiana line, paired with neighboring Junction City, Louisiana. It is the southernmost settlement in Arkansas, which gives it a clear geographic claim even though the town itself is small. The community had just over five hundred residents at the 2020 census and sits in south Arkansas timber and oil country. Junction City feels like a border town in the literal sense, with daily life connected to both states.
