This place has great amenities such as grocery stores, shopping areas, and parks. That alone is attractive enough to invite anyone to move here. The cost of living is also pretty amazing. When compared to the state of Arkansas and t ...Read More he United States, the reported cost of living in Blytheville is 8 % and 23 % respectively lower than there categorical averages. In addition, housing costs in Blytheville are less than the national average.
