We are very proud to welcome you to Benton, tucked between metropolitan Little Rock, the state's capitol, and famous Hot Springs, Arkansas.

You will find the air of small town friendliness, as you walk the downtown square and listen to the chimes of the old clock towering at the top of the court house. You can enjoy the scenic Saline river, or get away to the Ouachita National Park, just minutes from Benton. If fishing is your thing, you'll have many lakes not far from Benton to choose from.

Over the past seven years Benton has enjoyed a healthy growth of 22.9%. The citizens are strong in community events, and enthusiastic regarding our growth. The Chamber of Commerce has been busy with the booming retail growth, and is committed to the quality of life for the Benton area residents. Again, "Welcome to Benton, Arkansas," a great place to live and work.

Sincerely,

Mark Gillis
Executive Director
