Fountain Hill is a tiny town located in the state of Arkansas. With a population of 108 people and just one neighborhood, Fountain Hill is the 330th largest community in Arkansas.
Unlike some towns where white-collar or blue-collar occupations dominate the local economy, Fountain Hill is neither predominantly one nor the other. Instead, it has a mixed workforce of both white- and blue-collar jobs. Overall, Fountain Hill is a town of sales and office workers, service providers, and transportation and shipping workers. There are especially a lot of people living in Fountain Hill who work in sales jobs (21.51%), office and administrative support (18.28%), and management occupations (8.60%).
One interesting thing about the economy is that relatively large numbers of people worked from their home: 18.28% of the workforce. While this number may seem small overall, as a fraction of the total workforce this is high compared to the rest of the county. These workers are often telecommuters who work in knowledge-based, white-collar professions. For example, Silicon Valley has large numbers of people who telecommute. Other at-home workers may be self-employed people who operate small businesses out of their homes.
Another notable thing is that Fountain Hill is an extremely popular destination for tourists and seasonal residents. So much of the population is seasonal such that the town’s population swells significantly during the vacation season, and drops again when the season ends. Because of this, much of the local economy is centered around tourism; some businesses may be operated only during the high season. During the low season, year-round residents will notice that the city is a substantially quieter place to live.
Overall, Fountain Hill’s crime rate is one of the lowest in the nation, which makes a great place to live if safety is an important concern.
Residents will find that the town is relatively quiet. This is because it is not over-populated, and it has fewer college students, renters, and young children - all of whom can be noisy at times. So, if you're looking for a relatively peaceful place to live, Fountain Hill is worth considering.
Being a small town, Fountain Hill does not have a public transit system used by locals to get to and from work.
The rate of college-level education in Fountain Hill is quite a bit lower than the national average among all cities of 21.84%: just 12.75% of people here over 25 have a bachelor's degree or an advanced degree.
The per capita income in Fountain Hill in 2018 was $24,516, which is upper middle income relative to Arkansas, and lower middle income relative to the rest of the US. This equates to an annual income of $98,064 for a family of four.
Fountain Hill is an extremely ethnically-diverse town. The people who call Fountain Hill home describe themselves as belonging to a variety of racial and ethnic groups. The greatest number of Fountain Hill residents report their race to be Black or African-American, followed by White. Important ancestries of people in Fountain Hill include Irish, Italian, English, European, and German.
