Cammack Village is one of Arkansas's smallest incorporated municipalities — a roughly one-square-mile enclave that is geographically surrounded by Little Rock but maintains its own city government, police department, and millage rate. Its tight grid of mid-century bungalows, ranch homes, and Cape Cods has a neighborhood-within-a-neighborhood quality that longtime residents treasure. Proximity to The Heights' dining scene without The Heights' price tag is its defining advantage.
Real Estate in Cammack Village
Cammack Village's housing stock is almost entirely 1940s–1970s construction: modest bungalows, brick ranches, and split-levels on 50-75 foot lots. Homes are small to medium by modern standards (1,200–2,200 sq ft being typical), but lot sizes are generous and the tree canopy is exceptional. Prices run 15–20% below comparable homes in adjacent Heights neighborhoods. The investor and renovator community has discovered Cammack — a growing number of homes have been tastefully updated, and the flipped-and-resold market is active. Turnover is low among long-term owners, so patience is required to find the right property.
Schools
Cammack Village is within the Little Rock School District and feeds into the same Pulaski Heights school cluster as much of The Heights. The walkability to Pulaski Heights Elementary is a meaningful advantage for families with young children.

Life in Cammack Village
Cammack Village is a true residential enclave — there's no commercial strip inside the village borders. But it's bordered by Kavanaugh Boulevard (The Heights' main street) within walking distance, so residents have de facto access to everything The Heights offers at a lower price of entry.
Dining & Drinks
Step outside Cammack's borders onto Kavanaugh and you're immediately in The Heights' restaurant corridor — Doe's, Bruno's, ZaZa, wine bars, coffee shops. Residents treat it as their neighborhood dining scene even though it's technically one block over.
Parks & Outdoors
Allsopp Park, one of Little Rock's best urban parks, is adjacent to Cammack Village and accessible by foot or a very short drive. The park's 165 acres of wooded trails, disc golf, and tennis courts serve as Cammack's de facto backyard.
Arts & Culture
Cammack Village participates in the broader Heights cultural ecosystem. The neighborhood association runs community events including an annual celebration that draws the whole village out. WordsWorth Books and independent boutiques on Kavanaugh are effectively neighborhood institutions.
Family Life
Cammack Village is popular with families, particularly those who want a quieter residential environment than the Heights' more commercial core while still being in the same school zone. The walkability to Pulaski Heights Elementary is a significant selling point for parents.

Cammack Village's central location within the Little Rock grid means excellent access to all parts of the metro. Markham Street, Cantrell Road, and I-630 are all within minutes.
