As one of the largest municipalities in northwest Arkansas
Fayetteville is a youth-oriented, artistic city with the amenities of a much more populous area. It’s home to the University of Arkansas, and many graduates love it so much that they start looking for houses for sale in Fayetteville after graduation. Although the city has 87,000 full-time residents, the demographics of Fayetteville change drastically when university classes are in session. This is especially true on game days, when up to 76,000 people cram into the seats of Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium to watch their beloved Hogs play football. The university is the city’s biggest employer, but many residents also work in healthcare, government, and manufacturing. Walmart is based out of nearby Bentonville, and Tyson Foods is headquartered in Springdale, both of which are less than 30 minutes away from downtown Fayetteville. Children moving into new homes in Fayetteville have the choice of any of the eight public elementary schools within the city. There are four middle schools that funnel into Fayetteville High School. Depending on whether you live downtown or further out in Fayetteville Township, you may be zoned for a neighboring school district like Springdale, Elkins, or Greenland. The wealth of nature surrounding Fayetteville offers plenty of opportunities to get outside. The city is dwarfed by Mount Sequoyah in the east, and Kessler Mountain Regional Park in the south. The beautiful Botanical Garden of the Ozarks is located in the north end of the city. This popular spot features 12 gardens planted with local plants, and the only native butterfly house in the region. Whether you use Fayetteville as a base to venture out further into the Ozarks or prefer the boutiques and bars of Fayetteville Historic Square, there’s so much to explore in this vibrant city.
