Springdale city, AR in context

How this area compares with national benchmarks.

Springdale city is a small city in Arkansas, with 87,388 residents counted in the Census American Community Survey 2019-2023 ACS 5-year estimates, which places it #4 of 625 ranked by population — larger than 99% of them. The median age here is 32.5 years against 39.1 nationally, a distinctly younger profile, typical of places with students, military posts or a fast-growing family population. At this size the Census also publishes one-year estimates; the five-year values used here are steadier and let you compare against smaller neighbours on the same basis.

Households in Springdale city earn a median of $66,044 a year, 15.9% below the national figure of $78,538 and 34% above the $49,306 median for the 209 Arkansas cities we cover. The median is the midpoint household, not an average, so a handful of very high earners cannot drag it upward the way they distort a mean. Poverty reaches 13.7% of residents here, above the 12.4% national rate.

The typical owner-occupied home in Springdale city is valued at $237,200, 21.8% below the national figure and 84% above the $128,900 peer median, while median gross rent runs $1,008 a month, 28.3% below the national figure, or roughly $12,096 across a full year. A household on the local median income would put about 18.3% of gross pay toward that rent against the federal 30% cost-burden threshold, so renting here is cheap relative to what people here earn. The home-price-to-income ratio works out to 3.6×, against roughly 3.9× nationally, so buying is easier here than in the average US market. 53.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied versus 65% nationally, so the market leans more heavily on renters. The rent line includes utilities paid by the tenant, a definition worth remembering when comparing it against a landlord's quoted rate.
