Fayetteville, Arkansas: A Great Place To Retire

By:


The beautiful university town of Fayetteville, Arkansas has received a lot of attention lately. Though it is the third most populous city in the state of Arkansas, its small town feel and beauty have marked it as one of the best places to live in the United States. Several notable magazines and new sources have listed Fayetteville as one of the best places to live, work, and play and several other magazines have praised it as one of the best places in the United States to retire.

Located at the edge of the Ozark's highest mountain, Fayetteville's natural beauty is one of its most noted attractions, especially for retirees. With its many lakes, hills, and trails, people looking to retire from the fast pace of life and settle down in a place full of natural beauty find this city to be one of the finest locations. This is due not only to its mountainous and verdant location, but also its proximity to other points of interest, industries, and attractions that make Fayetteville such a great place to live.

As the location of the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville has the benefit of being the home to a diverse range of people and students as well as a center for education, sports, and arts. Because of the excellence of the University of Arkansas' track and field program including forty-two national NCAA championships, it is sometimes known as the Track Capital of the World. The arts are also highly praised in Fayetteville. It is home to a 70 member orchestra, the North Arkansas Symphony, that presents a full season of concerts for its music loving residents, as well as an Arts Center that provides a venue for concerts and theater year-round.

Also, because of its location in a region that is home to one of the largest food processors and the largest retailer in the country, Fayetteville is one of the South's fastest growing regions. These companies also provide thousands of jobs to residents in the region. But although Fayetteville is the third most populous city in Arkansas, retirees who have chosen the city as their location for retirement praise it for its feel and pace as a small southern town at its heart, a place where a retiree can enjoy all the benefits of a university town and its diversity and attractions, with the beauty and peace of a place surrounded in natural beauty.
