Questions

Common questions.

Are there historic neighborhoods in Augusta?

The Augusta Commercial Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008. NRHP-listed houses include the Gregory House and the Mathis-Hyde House.

Where is Augusta in relation to the White River?

Augusta is on the east bank of the White River.

How did Augusta get its name?

Thomas Hough laid out the town in 1848 and named it for his niece, Augusta Cald of Virginia. It incorporated on July 9, 1860.

Why do crawlspaces matter in Arkansas houses?

EPA notes that crawl spaces with high humidity are common sites of hidden mold growth, especially over bare soil, and that soil moisture raises the humidity in the air above it. Arkansas summers are humid, so crawlspace moisture is a common thing buyers ask about. EPA also advises grading the ground away from the foundation so it does not stay wet.
