|
Fort Smith, Arkansas,
the home of Ruud’s Air Conditioning Division headquarters
, is a town of approximately 80,000 people, tucked at the Southern
end of the Ozark Mountains. Although it is conveniently located
for the outdoor enthusiast, interstates 40 and 540 and a new
passenger airport terminal built in 2002 have made it easy to
get in and out of the city for business and pleasure via several
major airlines.
Consistently ranking among cities with the lowest costs of living
in the nation, Fort Smith is home to many other industrial players.
The University of Arkansas at Ft. Smith offers facilities for
higher education and helps provide cultural opportunities along
with the Little Theatre, Ft. Smith Symphony and the Western
Arkansas Ballet. The city’s twenty-seven nationally recognized
public schools also make it an excellent place to raise a family. |
