A percentile here is a min-max scaling of average rank: the smallest published value in the cohort is 0 and the largest is 100, and tied values share the average of the ranks they span. It is not the share of entities below the value, so 0 means smallest, not none below. Entities that did not publish the metric are outside the cohort entirely and are counted in neither the rank nor its denominator.

BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, metropolitan area tables, committed to this repository rather than fetched. A location quotient above 1 means the occupation is more concentrated here than in the United States as a whole; wages are means, not medians, and BLS suppresses a wage where its sample is too thin.
Housing #
The typical home in the Fayetteville, AR metro was worth $364,497 in September 2026.
25 months to September 2026. Rent: $1,571 in September 2026.
Zillow's metro row was matched to this CBSA BY NAME, not by a shared code: Zillow titles metros short ("Austin, TX") where the Census titles them long. Both series are Zillow's own smoothed indices of the middle third of the market, not sale prices.
Employment, rolled up from member counties #
About 276,349 covered jobs across the 3 member counties BLS published.
- jobs = sum of QCEW third-month employment across the 3 of 3 member counties BLS publishes.
- 276,349 = 151,933 + 3,595 + 120,821
| County | FIPS |
|---|---|
| Benton County, AR | 05007 |
| Madison County, AR | 05087 |
| Washington County, AR | 05143 |
The place manifest names 3 member counties for this metro, fewer than the 5 a cohort needs before a percentile means anything, so no within-metro position is offered for its counties. The positions above are against the other 392 metropolitan areas, which is a cohort that does not depend on the county pull.
There are no QCEW metro employment totals here, and that is a property of the data rather than an omission: BLS does publish MSA area codes (C####), but lib/economy's QCEW reader handles only county (SSCCC), state (SS000) and national (US000) rows at aggregation levels 74, 54 and 14, and the /api/economy route regex rejects anything else. So this figure is a sum of member counties, labelled an estimate, with every county it could not count named.

lib/indicators has no geographic selection: every registry entry is a United States, gauge, Texas, port, crossing or world series, and no entry is metro-keyed. Reading these as this metro's own readings would be wrong.
