Texarkana has been recognized by MakeMyMove as one of America’s Most Welcoming Places in 2024. This national recognition highlights our community’s commitment to remote workers, career development, and inclusive growth.
As a city that spans both Texas and Arkansas, Texarkana offers newcomers a unique advantage: the flexibility to choose between two states—each with its own economic, tax, and educational benefits—while being part of one united community. With access to top-ranked schools, robust workforce programs, and local institutions like Texas A&M University-Texarkana and Texarkana College, our region provides an unmatched environment for learning and professional advancement.
Through our relocation initiative, new residents are supported every step of the way—from welcome events with community leaders to career assistance and continuing education opportunities. Whether you’re building a career, pursuing a degree, or looking for a supportive place to grow, Texarkana is a place to belong.
