About Wrightsville

Wrightsville is a quiet, small community of around 1,500 people tucked along Highway 365, roughly 15 minutes southeast of downtown Little Rock. Positioned near the Arkansas River and surrounding wetlands, the area offers a relaxed, rural setting while keeping city conveniences well within reach. It first started out as a railroad stop in the late 19th century, and today it draws residents looking for affordable living, open space, and an easy commute into the capital.

Daily life in Wrightsville revolves around local staples and a close-knit atmosphere. Local students are served by the Pulaski County Special School District, attending schools such as Daisy Bates Elementary, Mills Middle, and Mills University Studies High School. The Millie Brooks Library branch is a popular neighborhood hub for books, computers, and community programs, alongside local churches and parks. A state correctional facility on the south end of town is one of the area's primary employers, providing steady jobs close to home.
