About Patterson

Patterson is a quiet community of around 300 residents tucked into the Arkansas Delta in Woodruff County. Originally established as a railroad junction and timber hub in the late 1800s, the town grew up around the intersection of local rail lines and the Cache River. Today, it has a relaxed, rural atmosphere surrounded by open farmland, offering a calm home base for anyone looking for small-town simplicity.

Most daily errands and community services connect naturally to neighboring towns like McCrory and Augusta. Living right along U.S. Highway 64 makes getting around easy, giving locals a direct path across eastern Arkansas toward larger hubs like Searcy and Memphis. The nearby Cache River basin and surrounding wildlife areas also provide easy access to some of the region's best hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreation.
