Mountain Home, Arkansas
Baxter County

    Mountain Home, a town of 10,120, is one of the best vacation and retirement spots in the country and a trade center for north central Arkansas and southern Missouri. Nestled in the Ozark Mountains between two massive lakes, with three rivers famous for fishing and floating nearby, the opportunities for recreation on the waters never cease. The town's latest achievement is being able to offer its young people a brand new college campus. Arkansas State University, after successfully operating a branch campus in Mountain Home for several years, is building a new campus on land off the new Highway 412/62 bypass.
