Benton, Arkansas is a nondescript suburb with a population of 35,014, offering little to distinguish it from other small Southern towns. The climate is hot and humid, while the bureaucracy is a persistent headache. Modest incomes, with a median household earning just $41,503, suggest this is hardly a destination for those seeking financial opportunity or excitement. At best, Benton is a sleepy bedroom community for those content with a quiet, provincial lifestyle.
