Moving to Springdale for Walmart What to Know
Springdale has its own home prices, tax rates and employers, distinct from neighboring cities. The confirmed facts behind this guide do not cover Walmart's office locations, workforce, commute times or any residency rule, so the sections below answer what is confirmed about Springdale and name what to confirm with the employer. Each sourced figure below comes from the confirmed facts on record for Springdale and for Arkansas, rather than general claims about the wider region.
What is the Springdale housing market like right now?
How much do homes in Springdale cost?
According to redfin.com, as of September 2026, over July through September 2026, homes in Springdale sold for a median price of $354,000. That figure reflects sales in Springdale itself, not the wider Northwest Arkansas region, and it will move as new sales close.
How quickly are homes selling in Springdale?
According to redfin.com, as of September 2026, homes in Springdale sold after an average of 33 days on the market over July through September 2026. That figure is an average for Springdale alone, not a deadline for a given listing, so a buyer relocating on a work timeline should have financing and a target area settled before touring.
How much will I pay in property taxes if I buy in Springdale?
Arkansas does not tax a home at its full market value. According to the Arkansas Assessment Coordination Division, as of August 2026, the state assesses real property at 20% of its true market value, and the local millage rate is applied to that assessed value rather than to the sale price. That rule applies the same way everywhere in the state, including Springdale.
How does Arkansas calculate the assessed value?
To illustrate, take a home valued at $400,000, an illustrative figure rather than a specific listing. Applying the state ratio, which according to the Arkansas Assessment Coordination Division, as of August 2026, is 20% of market value, that home carries an assessed value of $80,000, the figure the local millage is applied to.
Which school district millage applies to my address?
Springdale is not covered by a single millage rate: the city crosses school district and county lines, and the rate that applies depends on the exact address. The State of Arkansas 2025 Millage Report, covering 2026 collections, lists the following total rates for parcels in Springdale:
- Springdale School District, Benton County, according to dfa.arkansas.gov, as of March 2026: 52.41 mills
- Springdale School District, Washington County, according to dfa.arkansas.gov, as of March 2026: 54.4 mills
- Rogers School District, Benton County, according to dfa.arkansas.gov, as of March 2026: 57 mills
- Bentonville School District, Benton County, according to dfa.arkansas.gov, as of March 2026: 62.01 mills
A buyer should confirm which district and county apply to a specific parcel before estimating a tax bill, since the difference between the lowest and highest rate above is real money each year.
What would a sample tax bill look like?
