It has a lot to offer for a small town and the Ouchita (wash-i-taw) mountains are spectacular. There are several families there from California and the west coast who have settled in Mena. Then in April of 2009 a tornado came through and did a lot of damage to this beautiful place. All the old beautiful trees were uprooted, many homes were damaged, and it changed the town forever. It will never be the same. By the way, the people there are also very nice and caring.
The physical town will never be the same, but the people will never change. After the tornado you should have seen people helping people, neighbor helping neighbor, and strangers helping strangers.
