About Salem

Salem is a census-designated community in Saline County, Arkansas, situated just north of the county seat of Benton. Part of the Little Rock metropolitan area, the community serves primarily as a residential bedroom suburb. Historically, Salem developed around the Scott family settlement in 1833 and the historic Salem Methodist Campground, established in 1834. The campground is home to the Salem Camp Meeting, one of the oldest continuous Methodist meetings in the state, which has met annually since 1867.
