Blood, Trauma, and Biohazard Cleanup in Concord, AR

Concord is a town in the northeastern corner of Cleburne County, Arkansas, at the intersection of Arkansas Highways 25 and 87.

The community's name came from its church: around 1877, after Washington Lafayette Brock and his wife Charlotte gave a deed for the first state-funded school in the area, a vote settled on the name Concord for the church, cemetery, and school.

Concord was not formally incorporated until June 27, 1968, nearly a century after the community took its name.

Before the 1930s, most families in Concord were subsistence farmers; in the late 1930s and early 1940s, poultry farming and processing became a major way of life in the area.

Concord was once home to several stores, a post office, a café, a box factory, and a pallet mill.

Concord is perhaps best known as the home of Rimrock Records, the record label where Wayne Raney and other well-known area artists recorded songs.

Students in Concord are served by the Concord School District and graduate from Concord High School.

Concord's population peaked at 262 in the 1990 census; the 2020 census counted 190 people, and the 2000 census recorded 255 people in 106 households.

The town covers about 3.08 square miles, per the 2020 Census — a large area for so small a population.
