Community Minded: All About The City of Cabot

Cabot is just a quick 20-minute drive away from the state capital of Little Rock.
"Although our growth outpaces most other cities in this area, a strong sense of community is alive and well in Cabot," said Billye Everett, executive director of the Cabot Chamber of Commerce.
Schools and Parks
Community leaders desire to maintain a small-town atmosphere while continuing to encourage growth and offer new and better opportunities for area residents. In addition, Cabot takes pride in its recognition as an Arkansas Community of Excellence. A team of city, civic, business and community leaders in working together with state and regional partners to attract new business and industry to the rapidly growing area.
Cabotâs excellent school system, known for its high academic achievement and top-ranked school athletic programs, boasts nine elementary and two middle schools, two junior high schools, and one continuously updated high school. Cabotâs school district serves more than 9,000 students in grades K-12.
Several city parks, under the direction of the Cabot Parks & Recreation Commission, offer relaxation and recreational activities for everyone. Your sports organizations provide baseball, basketball, football, soccer, softball and swimming programs for youngsters from pre-K through high school.
Luxury Homes, Universities
In Cabot, luxury homes can be had from less than $350,000. The new Greystone development is described as a "family golfing community," with more than 1,850 richly wooded acres of homes and golf course. There are more than 50 other subdivisions in Cabot offering a neighborhood style that will suit just about everyone. Homes and rental properties are available across the full spectrum of price and amenities.
Cabot is within a 50-mile radius of four major universities, as well as a number of smaller colleges, community colleges, and technical schools. Arkansas State University at Beebe is just eight miles to the north, and offers both two-year and four-year degree programs, as well as technical and computer programs.
Golf enthusiasts will find the Mountain Springs and Cypress Creek Courses at Greystone up to par. And for those who love to bait a hook, Greers Ferry Lake and the Little Red River are a short drive away.
