Fayetteville is the University of Arkansas, Razorback football (call those hogs), and the Ozark mountains rising right outside town. The Walmart and Tyson HQ are in nearby Bentonville, which has reshaped the region's economy. The downtown square farmers market is one of the country's best. The food scene has grown up fast. Surprising for the region.

more each month than Nashville ran you
Barely costlier than Nashville. If Fayetteville pulls you in, it's the life it offers, not the price tag.
