Genuinely affordable housing, with a real cross-source spread

DeQueen's housing figures carry a real, disclosed cross-source spread this pass found: U.S. News cites a median home value around $105,497, Livability cites approximately $91,857, and a separately reported 2023 figure ran around $110,000 -- all genuinely affordable relative to national and Arkansas statewide medians (base record).

A low Sevier County property tax rate, though not DeQueen-specific

Sevier County's own median effective property tax rate runs approximately 0.47% (PropertyTax101.org), genuinely low and consistent with Arkansas's own statewide pattern, though this record discloses it as a county-level rather than DeQueen-specific figure (base record).

Arkansas's 3.7% top income tax rate and the $600 homestead credit

Arkansas's real, current top individual income tax rate is 3.7% for tax year 2026, the fourth consecutive annual cut, alongside a real Amendment 79 homestead property-tax credit currently worth $600 per homestead beginning with 2026 tax bills (base record).

Rent runs a real, wide range depending on source

Median gross rent runs a real, disclosed range of roughly $454-$757/month depending on source -- confirm current, specific rental listings directly with a local property manager (base record).
