Upkept With The Joneses

Brewing History: Onyx Coffee Lab became the first coffee company ever named a finalist for Outstanding Bar, a category traditionally reserved for top cocktail and wine programs.

World’s Best Cup of Coffee: The honor follows a standout year for the brand, including being named the No. 1 coffee shop in the world.

Growth That Won’t Slow Down: The region continues to rank among the top metros for population and economic growth, adding new residents, jobs, and opportunities at a steady pace. Strong performance across employment, income, and business development is helping position Northwest Arkansas as a national leader.

Planning for What’s Next: With growth comes challenges, including housing affordability, infrastructure demands, and protecting quality of life. Local leaders are working together to create long-term strategies that balance growth while protecting the characteristics that make Northwest Arkansas a great place to live.

Outdoor Explorer: Summer is about a year and a half old and weighs a lean 69 pounds. She’s already learned how to run alongside a mountain bike, making her an ideal match for active individuals or families who enjoy hiking, biking, or spending time outside. Her curiosity and playful personality shine as she explores new surroundings with enthusiasm and confidence.

Full of Personality: When she’s not on the move, Summer enjoys being around people and soaking up attention. She’s a little silly, very loving, and just as happy relaxing by your side as she is heading out on an adventure.

Jerry’s World: With the region adding roughly 40 new residents per day, plus a growing tourism scene spanning arts & culture, sports, and the outdoors, the case for relocation is compelling. Factor in the Dallas Cowboys’ front office ties to the area, and league leadership believes Northwest Arkansas could be a strategic long-term fit.
