Montgomery County, AR Property Records & Statistics
Montgomery County has a median rent of $622.50, lower than the Arkansas median of $686 and well under the national figure of $840.25. Renter-occupied housing makes up 19.84% of homes in the county, below the state share of 22.52% and the national share of 21.81%, which points to a market where most households own their homes.
Homes are valued at a median of $117,000, above the state median of $102,800 but far below the national median of $173,750. The median property tax rate is 0.41%, under both the state rate of 0.55% and the national rate of 0.74%, so owners here carry a lighter tax burden than in much of the state and country.
Median household income is $41,659, which trails the state figure of $49,346 and the national figure of $65,108. The unemployment rate of 3.21% is higher than the state rate of 2.69% and the national rate of 2.87%, suggesting a smaller local job market than the broader comparisons.
Overall, Montgomery County pairs affordable rents and low property taxes with home values that sit above the state median. Lower incomes and somewhat higher unemployment are the main pressures on household budgets. These comparisons matter for buyers, sellers, and investors, because housing costs, taxes, and local earnings together shape how affordable it is to own or rent a home in the county and how steady property values are likely to remain over time.
