I enjoy the overall Springdale experience very much! The public schools around here will ensure a child's success from the first day and, by the time you are in high school, your line of work will be pinpointed and you can start taking classes that can go towards your major!

Don't forget that you always have options with Springdale. With a large Hispanic and Marshallese population, you are sure to find a variety of cultures that you don't see anywhere else. Be sure to check out our downtown! You will find a large selection of local businesses that will either fill you up or ensure that you dress to impress! With Springdale High School straight down the road, it is the place to be when hanging out with friends or planning your next community event!

I will admit that Springdale is lacking in clean and safe movie theaters. The next community event should be to remodel the theater downtown! Now that is something that every Springdale native can get behind!

Springdale is a city in Northwest Arkansas. It is one of the fastest growing cities in the region. Springdale has great people, amazing companies and teachers that want to see you succeed. I have had many experiences in this city. For example, I’ve experienced going to different schools and each teacher helps you with everything. They never want to see you fail and they are always by your side. They make sure to help you with anything. Springdale has been growing but you still know most of the people because many people are united in this city. An example is the high school football and soccer games. The stadium always gets packed. Downtown Springdale used to look like an old place but I love how they remodeled it. You now see people posting pictures of downtown Springdale on social media and the bike trail is very neat. I would like Springdale to add more things for example, stores,parks and other fun things to do.
I have lived in Springdale my entire Life. I have seen alot of change, from seeing different races to renovation. It has changed alot and I believe throughout the years It can become a big city.
 Springdale is very calm and small and I like how residents here mostly all know eachother. I feel this is good because we can feel safer when going out and not seeing alot of strangers.
The city has become a little bit more modern, especially Emma Street. Thanks to Tysons Foods we now have a nice place to take pretty pictures for photographers and so we can go out an hangout during the summer. They also created a bike trail for bikers, which I find really cool.
 There is also many types of cultural foods now. Ranking from hispanic foods to korean, Japanese and also Italian foods. Living here all my life I have seen alot of cultural changes.
