Sunset, AR

Ireland

Sunset is a tiny Arkansas community of 153 people in Crittenden County, just west of Memphis across the Mississippi River. Reach it via I-40 west from Memphis (about 15 miles) or US Highway 70. Most trips are local farm runs or Memphis commutes, though I-40 carries cross-country traffic. The town got its name from early settlers who saw it as the "sunset direction" from Memphis.
