Using Clojure's built-in data structures is almost always the best choice until you have a good reason to use something else. In the case of arrays, that good reason is likely to be 1) memory usage, once your data sets become big, 2) performance, either because of the size of the data sets or because some algorithm needs very frequent access 3) interoperability with Java libraries such as Colt. As long as you work with small enough datasets, stick to Clojure vectors.
