Cross County, AR Property Records & Statistics
Cross County has a median rent of $759.50, higher than the Arkansas median of $686 but below the national figure of $840.25. Renter-occupied housing makes up 35.2% of occupied homes, far above the state's 22.52% and the national 21.81%, which shows that rentals are a much larger part of the local market than they are across most of Arkansas.
The median home value is $70,000, well under the state's $102,800 and the national $173,750. The median property tax rate of 0.49% is also lower than the state rate of 0.55% and the national rate of 0.74%, so owners generally carry a modest tax rate on relatively low-priced homes.
Median household income in the county is $45,813, below both the Arkansas figure of $49,346 and the national figure of $65,108. The unemployment rate is 5.17%, noticeably higher than the state's 2.69% and the national 2.87%, suggesting a weaker job market than in the state overall.
Together, the figures describe an affordable county with low home values and light property taxes, but also lower incomes, higher unemployment, and a high share of renters. Rents run close to the national level even though home values are far below it.
