Growing up in the area as it has changed overtime has made me very fond of the town. For where it’s at, there’s lots to do for all ages around Bentonville, for cheap or even free thanks to the square. Structure of some parts causes traffic issues, and because of that construction seems to always be going on somewhere. Great place to grow up along with the town though!
Bentonville is a town with a rich history. In downtown Bentonville, there is the first ever Walmart that was built. Sam Walton left a huge mark on the beautiful town that impacts our lifestyle in the town even to this day! The infamous Crystal Bridges Art Museum is also in this town, and it is a must to see! As more people are moving in, more schools are having to be built, which is increasing the property tax along with other costs. I would want to see these costs to go down, but other than that, Bentonville Arkansas is a wonderful place and it is growing at a very positive rate! A wonderful place to live in!
I lived here for over 20 years and watched the city go through some incredible changes. It's a very family-oriented place. Tons of parks and recreation options. The city puts real money into programs and facilities and you can really tell. Top-notch public schools too. The nightlife is gradually getting better. There are some excellent restaurants and bars these days. Big head-liners can occasionally be seen at the AMP.
Yes, the Waltons pretty much have their hands in everything that goes on, but that is not always a bad thing. Crystal Bridges is an amazing attraction for the area and draws in some very high-profile people. The downtown is more vibrant than it's ever been. The city continues to grow in population AND diversity.
That being said, housing is sickeningly expensive. If your income is modest, youll likely not be able to afford a home within Bentonville. This is a predominately wealthy area, so expect to pay top-dollar for housing. The job market is a little competitive.
