The state of Arkansas in the Southern UNITED STATES includes an abundance of towns with unusual, noteworthy names. Below are road maps of just several of these towns. The maps below are derived from the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ArDOT) Highway Map (PDF file). If you are familiar with other towns in The Natural State or elsewhere that have whimsical or just plain funny names, please let me know with a comment!
Beverage Town (southern Van Buren County)
Overcup (central Conway County)
Blue Ball (eastern Scott County)
"Y" City (southern Scott County)
Blue Eye (northeastern Carroll County)

There aren't many towns or villages that are simply named "Village". Southwestern Arkansas has one of those!
