	About Arkansas Counties << Directory of Arkansas Counties, history, contacts
		There are 75 Counties in the State of Arkansas which vary from the rich Delta farmlands of the Mississippi River valley to the rolling hills and gently sloped mountains of the Ozarks and Ouachitas are profiled in these pages.
		The counties are governmental slices of the same pie, all part of the state of Arkansas but separately governed at the local level.
		Each county has a county judge, who is the chief executive officer of the county, as well as several other countywide office holders including a quorum court (legislative body) made up of justices of the peace elected from single-member districts.
