'''Stuttgart''' is a city in and the [[county seat]] of the northern district of [[Arkansas County, Arkansas]], United States. As of the [[2010 United States Census|2010 census]] it had a population of 9,326.<ref name="Census 2010">{{cite web| url=http://factfinder.census.gov/bkmk/table/1.0/en/DEC/10_DP/G001/1600000US0567490| archive-url=https://archive.today/20200212174942/http://factfinder.census.gov/bkmk/table/1.0/en/DEC/10_DP/G001/1600000US0567490| url-status=dead| archive-date=February 12, 2020| title=Geographic Identifiers: 2010 Demographic Profile Data (G001): Stuttgart city, Arkansas| publisher=U.S. Census Bureau, American Factfinder| access-date=May 1, 2013}}</ref>

Founded in 1880,<ref>{{Citation|author=<!--Staff writer(s); no by-line.-->|title=Record of Appointment of Postmasters, 1832-1971. NARA Microfilm Publication, M841, 145 rolls. Records of the Post Office Department, Record Group Number 28|publisher=[[National Archives and Records Administration|National Archives]]|place=Washington, D.C.}}</ref> it was named for [[Stuttgart]], [[Germany]]. Stuttgart situated on the [[Arkansas Grand Prairie]], a region known for rice cultivation. The economy is largely based on agricultural production, waterfowl tourism, and supporting industries.

It is located on [[U.S. Route 165]], approximately {{convert|45|mi}} southeast of [[Little Rock, Arkansas|Little Rock]]; and on [[U.S. Route 79]] approximately 110 miles southwest of [[Memphis, Tennessee]]. Stuttgart is also on the [[Union Pacific Railroad]] between [[Memphis, Tennessee]], and [[Pine Bluff, Arkansas]].

== History ==
Stuttgart was founded by [[The Reverend]] Adam Bürkle of [[Plattenhardt]], [[Kingdom of Württemberg|Württemberg]] (present-day [[Germany]]).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.answers.com/topic/stuttgart-arkansas?cat=travel|title=Answers - The Most Trusted Place for Answering Life's Questions|website=Answers.com|access-date=September 17, 2017}}</ref> He moved to the United States in 1852 and founded a settlement at Gum Pond after living for a time in [[Ohio]]. On April 30, 1880, Bürkle opened a [[post office]] and thus had to name the village. In honor of his homeland, he named it [[Stuttgart]].<ref name="ePodunk"/> In 1882, the [[St. Louis Southwestern|Texas and St. Louis]] railroad was opened. Stuttgart was [[Municipal corporation|incorporated]] on April 19, 1889, and in 1904, [[rice]] farming was first introduced in the Stuttgart region. It became a dual county seat in Arkansas County with [[DeWitt, Arkansas|DeWitt]] in the 1920s.<ref name="1868report" />

==Geography==
Stuttgart and Arkansas County are located in the Arkansas Delta (in Arkansas, usually referred to as "the Delta") a subregion of the [[Mississippi Alluvial Plain]], which is a flat area consisting of rich, fertile sediment deposits from the [[Mississippi River]] between [[Louisiana]] and [[Illinois]].

Within the Delta, Arkansas County is almost entirely within the [[Arkansas Delta#Grand Prairie|Grand Prairie]] subregion, historically a flat grassland plain underlain by an impermeable clay layer (the [[Stuttgart soil series]]). Prior to the 19th century, flatter areas with slowly to very slowly permeable soils (often containing [[fragipan]]s) supported Arkansas's largest prairie, covered in prairie grasses and forbs, with oaks covering the low hills and ridges, and pockets of floodplains with bottomland hardwood forests. This region was a sharp contrast to the bottomland forests that once dominated other parts of the [[Mississippi Alluvial Plain]]. Cropland has now largely replaced the native vegetation. Distinctively, rice is the main crop; soybeans, cotton, corn, and wheat are also grown. The rice fields provide habitat and forage for large numbers and many species of waterfowl; duck and goose hunting occurs at this important spot along the [[Mississippi Flyway]].<ref name=ark4>{{USGS|title=Ecoregions of Arkansas |comment=color poster with map, descriptive text, summary tables, and photographs |author1= Woods, A.J. |author2=Foti, T.L. |author3=Chapman, S.S. |author4=Omernik, J.M. |display-authors=etal | url=https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Level_IV_ecoregions,_Arkansas.pdf }}</ref> Stuttgart is the most important city within the Grand Prairie region.<ref name="1868report" />

According to the [[United States Census Bureau]], the city has a total area of {{convert|18.7|km2|disp=flip}}, all land.<ref name="Census 2010"/>
