Fulton County, AR Property Records & Statistics
Fulton County's median rent is $638, below the Arkansas median of $686 and well under the national figure of $840.25. Home values follow the same pattern: the county's median home value of $95,400 is lower than the state's $102,800 and far below the national $173,750. Buying or renting here generally costs less than in most of the state and country.
Property taxes are modest as well. The county's median property tax rate is 0.45%, compared with 0.55% for Arkansas and 0.74% nationally. Combined with lower home prices, this suggests a relatively light annual tax cost for homeowners.
Income is the weaker side of the picture. Median household income in the county is $35,076, compared with $49,346 across the state and $65,108 nationally, so low housing costs go hand in hand with lower typical earnings. The unemployment rate is 0.63%, much lower than the state's 2.69% and the national 2.87%, pointing to a labor market where few residents are out of work.
Renter-occupied housing makes up only 11.46% of the county's occupied homes, about half the state share of 22.52% and the national share of 21.81%. That indicates a market dominated by owner-occupied housing, with a smaller rental stock than most places.
Taken together, the numbers describe a quiet, low-cost county: inexpensive homes, low taxes, very few renters, and almost no unemployment, offset by incomes that trail both the state and the nation.
