Default Possibly relocating to Lowell area..any information?

Hello everyone. I am trying to find out information about Lowell. Could you tell me about the town? People, schools, price to live there, etc.?
My husband is going to be applying for a job with Ryder there. We are a family of 5 and have a dog. Are pets welcomed at most of the apartments/houses there? Do pets have to be registered?
Sorry for all the questions. I tried searching for these things myself but wasn't able to find much information. I did find some apartments for rent in the 1000's a month range. Is that the norm for the area?

I would really like to learn as much as possible about the town and surrounding areas before I have him apply for this position. We have lived in Arkansas in the past, but on the other side of the state (Walnut Ridge and Corning).
Thank you very much.

I've never lived in the area, but I know for a fact that one of the largest multifamily housing companies headquarters is located in the Fayetteville area. Lindsey management. Go to lindseymanagement.com for further info on that.

I would think that $1000 per month is very high. Even in Little Rock the nicest apartments barely break $1000 per month. That and the fact that the area is loaded with college kids that can't afford to pay a price like that makes me believe that you could find apartments cheaper. Have you tried apartmentfinder.com? It was very useful to me here in LR.

Thank you for the tip. I tried searching apartmentfinder.com but unfortunally they don't have any 3 bedrooms listed right now. I found a few that were cheaper on rent.com. A bit more reasonably priced anyway. Although they are listing some that are up to 1350 also.
I thought 1000 was pretty expensive also but I thought I would ask those that may live in the area if that was the norm or not. I have found that the more expensive places get listed on the internet sites.

Thanks again for your help.

I wasn't thinking 3 bedroom when I mentioned Lindsey management. I believe they are all 2 bedroom apartments. You might still check though. I could be wrong. I would think that you could find a 3 BR apt. or house to rent for around $800, but thats just a guess. Hope you find something.

There are also quite a few homes for lease in Bentonville, which is a very short drive to Lowell and has some great schools.

Searching, please send me a private message.

We just leased a brand new 3br 2bath 1600 sq ft home for $795/month. It is in the Rogers school district, but is less than 5 minutes from Lowell.
New subdivision. Elementary & sophmore campus are within walking distance.

They are pet friendly (we have 2 dogs & 1 cat - pay $200 non-refundable pet deposit).

I only have an e-mail address for the person I've been dealing with and don't want to post it in the forum.

Thanks
