Me again. Southern hospitality is telling you not to bring your kids to south Arkansas.

Default I agree also about South Arkansas......

that's why we have our children in church and in a private school. That would be the only way to survive in South Arkansas. The job growth is slow here and the area is not that scenic. Most people are nice but you have the people that (anywhere) that bring a bad reputation to a small town. We live in a decent, safe neighboorhood in Camden, but still have to keep our doors, windows, and gates secure because we have the undesirables that wander our neighboorhood at night that want to steal whatever they can find to steal. Someone stole my son's old bike and our large dog carrier that was on the carport one night. Probably some crack head. If it wasn't for my spouses job I would think we would move somewhere else. Don't know where but would want to live somewhere else where my children could have a brighter future. This area is so ecomonically depressed.

I live in Texarkana and If I had to pick the best of the 3 I'd say El Dorado. I've lived in Camden for a short time and didn't like it at all.

Magnolia, by far! They have both public and private schools, a major university, wonderful restaurants, a charming downtown area...make a postcard with this town!

El Dorado is nice, and they do have the Promise, but why would they pay you to attend their public schools...think about it.

One more vote for Magnolia being the best of the three. I work there. Also, one more vote for ElDorado being the armpit of Arkansas.
