Faulkner]], better known as Sandy Faulkner, a popular figure in the state at the time.

Located at the intersection of the [[Ozarks]] and [[Arkansas River Valley]], the county was sparsely populated for much of its early years. Largely a county of rural settlements, growth came slowly following the [[American Civil War|Civil War]] and Reconstruction. The college known today as [[University of Central Arkansas]] was established in 1907, but population continued to grow slowly. The growth of [[Little Rock, Arkansas|Little Rock]] and the construction of [[Interstate 40 in Arkansas|Interstate 40]] have made Conway and other parts of Faulkner County into [[Commuter town|bedroom communities]] for the state capital. Today Faulkner County is included in the [[Central Arkansas]] metro area, with Conway as a principal city.
