INFORMATION ABOUT BELLA VISTA ARKANSAS
WHAT OUR RESIDENTS SAY…
Bella Vista is a great place to live. Between the City government and the POA, the area is well maintained. The amenities, such as the golf courses, the tennis facilities and lakes, are well maintained and controlled. For retired age people, there are always a lot of activities happening and for young families, the area is a safe place to raise children. The addition of hiking and biking trails has brought a lot of attention to the area and high approvals from several mountain biking magazines. Cost of living is relatively low versus the rest of the country and the natural beauty surrounding Bella Vista is hard to beat. I have lived in the area for over 35 years and have never wanted to move elsewhere.
I have been coming to Bella Vista for 30 years, since I was a young adult and have always been so attracted to the natural beauty of this area. Now, living here for almost two years I am just starting to realize all of the other benefits the area brings. We feel welcomed by the community and so have experienced so many ways to be involved, there is a positive vibe and opportunities for both business and growth. The housing market is reasonable and the POA and City are transforming to meet the needs of all demographics.
Bella Vista has it all. We found the location by sheer serendipity. As we were looking for a retirement location in our full-time RV, a couple suggested we take a look. We did by stopping off at the BV RV park. And, the rest is history. The area had everything on our “must-have list”: fly-fishing, affordable golf, social activity, great health care, an airport, reasonable taxes and amenity dues, beautiful terrain, four full seasons that aren’t extreme on either end. It is our “heaven on earth”. No kidding.
Retired to Bella Vista over 15 years ago from California, drawn by the beautiful golf courses and economical living. Didn’t know a soul but quickly made lots of friends through the many social organizations here. Have never regretted it!
