Cleveland is an unincorporated community in Conway County, Arkansas, United States. Cleveland is located on Arkansas Highway 95, 19miles north of Morrilton. Cleveland has a post office with ZIP code 72030.[1] Cleveland was founded in 1890, named after former President Grover Cleveland.
"Downtown" Cleveland consists of the Cleveland Post Office, the Cleveland Corner Store, the Cleveland Volunteer Fire Department, the Cleveland Community Center, and the Cleveland Cemetery, which is the final resting place for a handful of veterans from the American Civil War, as well as 20th century conflicts such as World War I and World War II.
Highway 95, which runs through Cleveland, connects the cities of Morrilton (Conway County) and Clinton (Van Buren County). The Ozark National Forest is nearby.
The main industries in Cleveland are commercial broiler chicken growers for Tyson Foods, cattle husbandry, and natural gas extraction in the Fayetteville Shale.
In September 2023, property at the corner of Hwy 95 and Lentz Rd was fenced off and converted into a town park. The 1st Annual Cleveland Days Festival was held at this site on September 15 and 16 as a fundraiser for the new park, with the intention of having a festival every year in Mid-September. The 2nd annual Cleveland Days Festival was held on September 14, 2024.
Public education for elementary and secondary school students is provided by the Wonderview School District of north Conway County,[2] [3] which leads students to graduate from Wonderview High School (which has a Hattieville postal address), 7miles south of Cleveland on Highway 95.
