The City of Fayetteville, Arkansas has a population of 58,047 with an average household size of 2.21. Fayetteville is located in Washington County not far from the Ozark Mountains.
Fayetteville is home to the Clinton House Museum, University of Arkansas, and every year they reenact the Civil Ware battle of Fayetteville in period costumes in April. The Confederate Cemetery is also located in Fayetteville which is the final resting place for some 500 confederate solders from Texas, Missouri, Louisiana and Arkansas. Fayetteville National Cemetery is the final resting place for the some 1,600 Union solders along with hundreds of veterans who have lost their lives since.
Fayetteville is rich in historical heritage and the city works hard to attract visitors to their many museums and cultural events. However, there is still a very dangerous drug abuse problem in the city, especially on the college campus.
Fayetteville, Arkansas Drug Information
The DEA (The US Drug Enforcement Administration) reports crack cocaine, as well as powder cocaine, has continued to be significant and long-term problems in the state, especially in the inner cities. Although cocaine use has been surpassed by methamphetamine use, it is the foremost concern of law enforcement authorities considering its impact on communities in terms of violent crime, including homicides, principally by street gangs. The ready availability of cocaine and the movement of street gangs beyond traditional areas of operation have led to the spread of crack to many suburban and rural areas. Crack’s explosive growth and dominance can be attributed to the drug’s wide availability, inexpensive price, simplicity of conversion from powdered cocaine hydrochloride, and its addictive properties. Rates of crack cocaine abuse are high and concentrated in the black communities. Distribution points for crack include Little Rock, Texarkana, El Dorado, Hot Springs, and Dumas. Cocaine is transported into Arkansas in both powder and crack form.
Heroin trafficking patterns in central Arkansas are difficult to discern, as there have been so few investigations of this type. What little tar heroin is encountered in central Arkansas appears to be imported into the state by the Mexican trafficking organizations already in existence.
MDMA is the most prevalent and popular club drug in Arkansas. Other dangerous drugs increasing in popularity and demand throughout Arkansas include LSD, OxyContin and GHB. These dangerous drugs are commonly found and continue to be the drugs of choice at “rave” functions and college hangouts throughout the state, especially in the highly populated areas of Arkansas.
Sources in California transport LSD to the Little Rock and Fayetteville areas for redistribution. LSD is sold in several different forms including blotter paper and small vials of liquid. Shipments are also mailed through the U.S. Postal Service and commercial shipping companies.
Marijuana is in high demand and readily available throughout Arkansas. Marijuana grown in Mexico and domestically produced marijuana are both popular in the state.
Current investigations indicate that diversion of hydrocodone products such as Vicodin® and oxycodone products such as OxyContin®, as well as morphine and pseudoephedrine, continues to be a problem in Arkansas. Primary methods of diversion being reported are illegal sale and distribution by healthcare professionals and workers, “doctor shopping” (going to a number of doctors to obtain prescriptions for a controlled pharmaceutical), forged prescriptions, employee theft, pharmacy theft, and the Internet. Demerol® and Dilaudid® were also identified as being among the most commonly abused and diverted pharmaceuticals in Arkansas.

The number of workable drug abuse solutions in Fayetteville, Arkansas are unfortunately very limited, as most programs aren’t long-term residential and aren’t results-based. This is why so many people in Fayetteville looking for a successful drug rehab program are turning to the Riverbend Retreat for answers.
In the State of Arkansas, and specifically in the city of Fayetteville, the effects of drug and alcohol abuse goes way past the the damage done to the addicts themselves. In terms of time lost on the job, to the health system inundated by illness and overdoses to communities harmed by the crime rate caused by addicts looking to steal anything in order to get their next fix, to families living a nightmare as they watch helplessly as their loved one goes further down the chutes. The rollercoaster of emotions, concern and anger seems like a never ending ride the abuser puts his friends and family through. Failures in the past with drug rehab centers further numb the addict to any hope of a future without drugs. It truly can appear hopeless.
What should the goal be of a drug rehab center? Clean and sober for 30 days? While that might be a good short term goal, many treatment centers and 12 step programs still leave the drug addict fighting a continuing battle with addiction. Once an addict always an addict; or it’s a mental disorder they can do nothing about. When choosing a drug rehab center for yourself or a loved one from Fayetteville, Arkansas, it is important to become educated on the different types of drug rehab and what the end results are.
