Russellville is a good place to raise children. The public school district has a Blue Ribbon winning elementary school with STEAM focused education. There are several things to do as a family, such as bowling, a movie theater, skating rink, public pool, and walking trails. It is half way between two major cities so shopping malls are only an hour away in either direction. The public library has exciting programs for all ages. Arkansas Tech University serves Russellville and the surrounding areas with concurrent high school classes to jumpstart a college education to high school students.
I think Russellville is a great place! Its not to small but not to big; perfect place to raise a family! Russellville is a place where most people know each other, and that always a plus. Just like any other city Russellville has its flaws. These include, little funding money, not very many family friendly activities, etc.
This city has the small town feel with a variety of things to keep you entertained as well. We are a growing city, there is almost always something going on. From high school events, college events, events downtown, different 5K's to join, fishing derby's, and many other family events to attend. Spend a nice sunny day on the lake with your family, spend the evening at the movies or go bowling. We have a variety of restaurants to choose from as well as fast food joints. Russellville is a big supporter of Arkansas Tech University. Different establishments paint their windows gold and green in support during homecoming.
