Greers Ferry city, AR in context
How this area compares with national benchmarks.
Greers Ferry city is a very small community in Arkansas, with 959 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #216 of 625 ranked by population — larger than 65% of them. The median age here is 49.6 years against 39.1 nationally, a markedly older profile that usually tracks retirees staying put and younger households leaving for work. At this population the ACS sample is small, so the margin of error around every dollar figure below is wide — treat the numbers as a band, not a point, and expect them to move between annual releases without the place itself changing.
