Primary Regional Economic Development Partnership for the Texarkana MSA

United for a Unique Advantage #TAPintoTEXARKANA

The Texarkana Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) is a three-county region comprising the twin cities of Texarkana, Arkansas and Texarkana, Texas, and encompassing the surrounding communities of Bowie County, Texas, Little River County, Arkansas and Miller County, Arkansas.
Developed around a complex rail system more than a century ago, the Texarkana region has grown into a national crossroads for transportation. Situated at the junction of numerous major interstates and highways, Texarkana provides convenient access to key markets from the West Coast to the East Coast while offering plentiful natural resources and lower costs than can be found in crowded urban markets.
The Texarkana region offers an unbeatable blend of affordability, opportunity, and quality of life. With its charming small-town feel and abundance of recreational and cultural amenities, this two-state region is perfect for those who want to live and thrive. Companies appreciate Texarkana’s pro-business climate while families will love the region’s excellent schools and safe neighborhoods.
