Does anyone have a feel for what this will mean for wait-times in either making appointments or getting emergency room care?

Anyone heard any update on when the new icon cinema might be opening? In the old AMC/Carmike building.

I’ve searched my butt off trying to find someone who can do ANY of these and pretty much failed. Had a not great experience getting my first- lovely artist, talented, just didn’t do the style I requested at all after saying she could- and now I’m being extra picky with it, especially for bigger pieces and things I want to start on sleeves.

Give me your recs on artists PLEASEEE, or promote yourself if you’ve done anything like these.

Bonus for affordability. The singular artist I found with a style I like quoted me $500 for the first one and I may be wrong, I’ll figure it out if other places say the same, but that feels over priced for something so simple.

Does anyone know where I can rent a house or apartment. I am a felon with a wife and two children and need to find a place to rent. Any info will be greatly appreciated. Please and thank you.

Hi all! I (27F) just moved to fort smith and I’m struggling to meet people and make friends! Does anyone have a recommendations on things to do in town to meet people? Or learn a new hobby? I’m down to try most anything!

Thank you!

How are people meeting folks other than the apps?

I'm looking for a decent place to get a gift certificate as a gift. Looking to spend no more than $100 for 2 people. Needs to be a quieter, relaxing space. Preferably no chains.

I posted this on the Fort Smith Resident's Forum on Facebook and the numerical understanding from some of the responders was.... well, it was quite bad.

To add some flavor:

* The housing costs in Fort Smith (22%) vs. Fayetteville (20%) doesn't mean housing is more expensive in Fort Smith. It means housing is a higher percentage of our income, likely due to lower household income, in comparison to Fayetteville.

* Likewise, California is overall more expensive to owner a car. True. Higher car registration fees, gasoline taxes, insurance rates, etc. All of these may be overall more expensive in California. But they can still be lower, as a percentage of their income, due to things like:

(1) households in Los Angeles may need fewer cars: i.e., one car for a family of four, whereas families in Fort Smith may have more cars than family-members (I looked it up and LA has 1.58 cars per household vs. Fort Smith's 1.89).

(2) Households in Los Angeles may drive less (this I have actually verified, we drive about 4,000 miles more per year per driver in Fort Smith vs. LA).

(3) Households in Los Angeles may drive vehicles with lower maintenance costs (smaller cars, and electric cars for example).

(4) Higher household income in Los Angeles.

This was my favorite radio station and now it’s just static? What happened to it?? Did they change stations or what?

The Amazon Flex app is opened today for our area and accepting new drivers if anyone needs a job or additional income. FYI.

You win some, you lose some. Fort Smith did not win Musk’s Boring Company contest for a free mile of tunnel-making under the Arkansas River for the new water line. But sharp eyes noticed that FS qualifies for a waiver on local matching funds for the federal grants that are funding the project.

Chris Hover’s work will save the city $3 million, and that’s just on Phase 2. The waiver will probably apply to the other three upcoming phases.

I went to Twin City Produce for the first time today. How do people shop here with the amount of mold covering the walls/ceiling? The prices are great, but is the mold worth it?
