This is a great growing city for families! Lots to do, outside and inside, fantastic restaurants, museums, bike trails and a wonderful little downtown square! People are friendly and helpful, it's home to Walmart HQ, so lots of jobs available, affordable housing as well.
Bentonville sets itself a part with a hometown feel yet exciting places to eat, shop and play. Local museums and activity centers are great for children and we have the best city parks around. Our public schools are top notch and there are plenty of opportunities for employment and housing.
Bentonville is also home to Walmart's corporate headquarters and they offer a wide variety of employment options. We also have Northwest Arkansas Community College which is an excellent 2 year school that's only 30 minutes away from the University of Arkansas.

Overall, Bentonville is a nice place to live. You can count on being safe in this town. Downtown has grown immensely in the past 5-6 years and there’s much more to do. Crystal Bridges Art Museum is beautiful and they often rotate their displays and have travelling exhibits. Traffic isn’t horrible unless it’s rush hour, but this is mainly due to construction. My big complaint is that this town is made more for families or adults with well-established careers. It’s pretty expensive to buy a house in town, which is great if you’re selling, but not if you’re buying. My other issue is the nightlife in this town. If it’s past 9:00 PM and I want to go out, it’s basically pointless because everything closes at 8:00 PM. Our Walmart overlords basically run this town, and it’s quite evident with the Walmart museum being right on the square.
