Crowley’s Ridge is a unique geographic feature in eastern Arkansas. The Ridge, as locals call it, extends more than 150 miles rising high above the otherwise flat, fertile farmland that is the Mississippi River delta.

The Ridge is home to some of the largest cities in the Arkansas delta, including Jonesboro and Paragould, as well as Arkansas State University.
