Established initially as Alta Villa by Italian immigrants in 1915,[1] Little Italy is an unincorporated community in Pulaski and Perry counties in the U.S. state of Arkansas.[2] The culturally rich and historically significant hamlet is located in high terrain along Arkansas Highway 300 amidst the northeastern foothills of the Ouachita Mountains[3] bestriding Wye Mountain[4] and Kryer Mountain.[5] As part of a multi-decade heritage preservation effort, its residents are currently seeking status as an incorporated municipality.[6]
