Faulkner County is home to Conway, one of Arkansas's fastest-growing cities and home to three colleges: University of Central Arkansas, Hendrix College, and Central Baptist College. Conway's higher education base, growing healthcare sector, and proximity to Little Rock (just 30 miles south on I-40) have made it a destination for young families and professionals. The Faulkner County Assessor manages assessments in a market with significant student rental activity and suburban growth. The 2026 appeal deadline is August 17, 2026.
