Welcome to the City of Decatur, Arkansas where working together we can do awesome things!

The City of Decatur is a small community that is tucked away in the rolling foothills of the Ozark Mountains where two state highways intersect. The town has a population of approximately 1799 and is approximately 4.5 square miles of land and water. Most of the town is made up of local businesses that are native to the community except for a few chains such as Dollar General and Farmer's Cooperative. The local industries are Simmons Prepared Foods, FNA (Powerwashers), and Wellness Pets. 

The community does offer seven (7) parks which includes a walking trail, disc golf, baseball fields, playground equipment, a public swimming pool, pickleball courts, picnic areas, and Crystal Lake which is owned and maintained by the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. Every year the Decatur Chamber of Commerce hosts the annual Decatur BBQ in Veterans Park.

If you are in need of medical help, there is a medical clinic owned and operated by Ozark Community Hospital.

Looking for something for lunch? How about Taste of Eden, TNT Express, Comida Mexicana, or Decatur Handy Mart? You can find anything from hamburgers to Tacos. 

In need of spiritual guidance? We have several churches with all great and awesome leaderships with different avenues of ministries that can help you. 

Looking for information, try the Iva Jane Peek Public Library located at 121 N. Main Street. Looking for something to do during the summer that might be indoors during the heat, give the Depot Museum a try. This Museum is the old Kansas City Southern Depot and houses an old engine as well as a caboose. You can go back in time as you discover tid bits of information and a train passes through. 

Decatur also offers education for your little ones with the Northside Elementary, and the Decatur Middle School and High School. 

Decatur does have a lot to offer, and the nice part is that if Decatur doesn't have what you are looking for it is surrounded by towns that might have it. Siloam Springs is approximately 13 miles south.  While heading to Siloam Springs, you will pass through Gentry, which is approximately 6 miles south. Centerton is approximately 11 miles east, and Gravette is approximately 6 miles north of Decatur. 

Whatever you do for a living, whatever your interests are, and however you like to explore Northwest Arkansas, Decatur welcomes you with open arms.
