Cleburne County, AR Property Records & Statistics
Cleburne County, home to Heber Springs and Greers Ferry Lake, has housing costs that run above the Arkansas averages but remain below national levels. The median rent is $741.50, higher than the state's $686 and under the national $840.25. The median home value is $147,900, well above the state median of $102,800 and below the national $173,750, which reflects the demand that lakeside and retirement living bring to the area.
Property taxes are on the lighter side. The county's median property tax rate is 0.51%, below the state rate of 0.55% and the national rate of 0.74%. Because home values are higher than the state norm, the lower rate takes some of the edge off what owners pay.
The median household income is $53,223, higher than the Arkansas figure of $49,346 but below the national $65,108. The unemployment rate is 2.69%, matching the state rate of 2.69% and sitting under the national rate of 2.87%.
Renter-occupied housing is only 16.07% of homes, well below the state share of 22.52% and the national share of 21.81%. That points to a market dominated by homeowners, where rentals are less common than in other parts of the state and the national picture. Taken together, the numbers describe a comparatively higher-priced, low-tax, owner-oriented market.
