Bentonville is one of the fastest-growing and most-lauded small cities in America. Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, an extraordinary mountain biking trail network, top-rated schools, and Walmart's economic engine create an unusually high quality of life for a city its size.
Walmart's global headquarters dominates the economy, but hundreds of supplier companies maintain regional offices to stay close to their largest customer, creating a robust professional job market. The tech and logistics sectors are also growing rapidly.
Bentonville is a world-class mountain biking destination, with over 300 miles of trails in the Oz Trails network. The Crystal Bridges natural setting, Slaughter Pen trail system, and Tanyard Creek trails are all within or adjacent to the city.
Bentonville is substantially more expensive than Fayetteville or Fort Smith, and far more expensive than Little Rock's suburbs. The Walmart effect has driven housing prices to levels more comparable to mid-tier Sunbelt metros than typical Arkansas cities.
