Crossett's population in 2010 was 5,507, but including the two adjacent [[unincorporated area|unincorporated]] [[census designated place]]s of [[North Crossett, Arkansas|North Crossett]] and [[West Crossett, Arkansas|West Crossett]], the total population was 10,752 in 2010. The county seat, [[Hamburg, Arkansas|Hamburg]] is centrally located in the county and had a population of 2,857 at the 2010 Census. The four remaining cities are all located along US 165 in the eastern part of the county, and have populations below 1,000 people: [[Montrose, Arkansas|Montrose]], [[Parkdale, Arkansas|Parkdale]], [[Portland, Arkansas|Portland]], and [[Wilmot, Arkansas|Wilmot]]. The lone incorporated town, [[Fountain Hill, Arkansas|Fountain Hill]], is located north of Hamburg and had a population of 175 in 2010.<ref>{{ cite web |author= Staff of the Arkansas Census State Data Center |title=AR Census Data |url= https://ualr.edu/aedi/census-state-data-center/arkansas-census-data/ |location= Little Rock |publisher= [[Arkansas Economic Development Institute]], [[University of Arkansas at Little Rock]] |access-date= May 13, 2019 }}</ref> Ashley County has dozens of unincorporated communities and ghost towns within its borders. This is due to early settlers in Arkansas tending to settle in small clusters rather than incorporated towns, especially along bayous or river landings in Ashley County. For example, communities like [[Longview Crossing, Arkansas|Longview]] and [[Milo, Arkansas|Milo]] had a post office or other buildings at some point in their history. Other communities are simply a few dwellings at a crossroads that have adopted a common place name over time. Some are officially listed as populated places by the United States Geological Survey, and others are listed as historic settlements. ===Unincorporated communities=== {{div col|colwidth=10em}} * [[Beech Creek Crossing, Arkansas|Beech Creek Crossing]] * [[Berea, Arkansas|Berea]] * [[Berlin, Arkansas|Berlin]] * [[Bovine, Arkansas|Bovine]] * [[Boydell, Arkansas|Boydell]] * [[Cremer, Arkansas|Cremer]] * [[Crossroad, Ashley County, Arkansas|Crossroad]] * [[Donbey, Arkansas|Donbey]] * [[Forest Park Addition, Arkansas|Forest Park Addition]] * [[Gulledge, Arkansas|Gulledge]] * [[Kimball, Arkansas|Kimball]] * [[Lloyd, Ashley County, Arkansas|Lloyd]] * [[Longview Crossing, Arkansas|Longview Crossing]] * [[Martinville, Arkansas|Martinville]] * [[Meridian, Arkansas|Meridian]] * [[Miller's Chapel, Arkansas|Miller's Chapel]] * [[Milo, Arkansas|Milo]] * [[Mist, Arkansas|Mist]] * [[Moore's Mill, Arkansas|Moore's Mill]] * [[Mount Olive, Ashley County, Arkansas|Mount Olive]] * [[Mount Pleasant, Ashley County, Arkansas|Mount Pleasant]] * [[Oakhurst Addition, Arkansas|Oakhurst Addition]] * [[Old Milo, Arkansas|Old Milo]] * [[Post Oak, Arkansas|Post Oak]] * [[Promised Land, Arkansas|Promised Land]] * [[Pugh, Arkansas|Pugh]] * [[Rawls, Arkansas|Rawls]] * [[Riley, Arkansas|Riley]] * [[Roark, Arkansas|Roark]] * [[Rolfe Junction, Arkansas|Rolfe Junction]] * [[Snyder, Arkansas|Snyder]] * [[South Crossett, Arkansas|South Crossett]] * [[Stillions, Arkansas|Stillions]] * [[Sulphur Springs, Ashley County, Arkansas|Sulphur Springs]] * [[Sunshine, Ashley County, Arkansas|Sunshine]] * [[Thebes, Arkansas|Thebes]] * [[Trafalgar, Arkansas|Trafalgar]] * [[Unity, Arkansas|Unity]] * [[Venice, Arkansas|Venice]] * [[Wallace, Arkansas|Wallace]] * [[White, Arkansas|White]] * [[Whitlow, Arkansas|Whitlow]] * [[Whitlow Junction, Arkansas|Whitlow Junction]] * [[Petersburg, Arkansas|Petersburg]] {{div col end}} ===Historical communities=== {{div col|colwidth=10em}} * [[Brushy, Arkansas|Brushy]] * [[Elon, Arkansas|Elon]] * [[Jackson, Arkansas|Jackson]] * [[Matoka, Arkansas|Matoka]] * [[Phelan, Arkansas|Phelan]] * [[White, Arkansas|White]] {{div col end}} ===Townships=== [[File:Ashley County Arkansas 2010 Township Map large.jpg|thumb|Townships in Ashley County, Arkansas, as of 2010]] {{Arkansas Townships About|County = Ashley}} <ref>{{Cite map |publisher = United States Census Bureau |title = 2011 Boundary and Annexation Survey (BAS): Ashley County, AR |url = http://www2.census.gov/geo/pvs/bas/bas11/st05_ar/cou/c05003_ashley/BAS11C20500300000_000.pdf |access-date = August 11, 2011 |url-status = dead |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20121019144417/http://www2.census.gov/geo/pvs/bas/bas11/st05_ar/cou/c05003_ashley/BAS11C20500300000_000.pdf |archive-date = October 19, 2012 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url = https://www.census.gov/geo/maps-data/maps/block/2010/cousub/dc10blk_st05_cousub.html#A | title = Arkansas: 2010 Census Block Maps - County Subdivision | publisher = [[United States Census Bureau]] | access-date = May 27, 2014}}</ref> {{div col|colwidth=10em}} * [[Banner Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Banner]] * [[Bayou Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Bayou]] * [[Bearhouse Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Bearhouse]] * [[Beech Creek Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Beech Creek]] * [[Carter Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Carter]] (contains [[Hamburg, Arkansas|Hamburg]]) * [[De Bastrop Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|De Bastrop]] (contains [[Parkdale, Arkansas|Parkdale]]) * [[Egypt Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Egypt]] (contains [[Crossett, Arkansas|Crossett]], [[West Crossett, Arkansas|West Crossett]], and most of [[North Crossett, Arkansas|North Crossett]]) * [[Elon Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Elon]] * [[Extra Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Extra]] * [[Longview Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Longview]] * [[Marais Saline Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Marais Saline]] * [[Mill Creek Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Mill Creek]] (contains part of [[North Crossett, Arkansas|North Crossett]]) * [[Montrose Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Montrose]] (contains [[Montrose, Arkansas|Montrose]]) * [[Portland Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Portland]] (contains [[Portland, Arkansas|Portland]]) * [[Prairie Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Prairie]] * [[Union Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Union]] * [[White Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|White]] (contains [[Fountain Hill, Arkansas|Fountain Hill]]) * [[Wilmot Township, Ashley County, Arkansas|Wilmot]] (contains [[Wilmot, Arkansas|Wilmot]]) {{div col end}} Source:<ref name=2010-Census-PDF1 />
