[edit] History

The city is an example of an enclave, as it is completely surrounded by Little Rock, the county seat and state capital. According to the mayor's webpage, the community chose to incorporate in 1943 since Little Rock officials at the time believed that the community was "too far west."

[edit] Economy

As of January 2007, Cammack Village does not have a local sales tax enacted; however a 6% state and 1% county sales tax [1] does still apply to applicable transactions inside the city limits.
