Travel & Leisure reports that the newly announced Life Works Here
initiative is attracting new residents to Northwest Arkansas by offering
them $10,000 to move there. They’re also throwing in a street or
mountain bike with the deal, allowing new residents to easily explore
the area’s 162 miles of paved trails and 322 miles of mountain biking
trails.

Included at no extra cost, along with the region's hard scrabble
poverty: low school test scores, poor health care, alcoholism, a
25-year old pickup truck, teen pregnancies, crack, missing teeth,
cigarettes, and a Trump sign...


Sounds like a blue region. Trying to get people who don’t live on the
dole and bankruptcies.
