Them not having enough on campus and close to campus alternatives has also made rents artificially inflated in Fayetteville.

I know a lot of young professionals making decent money that struggle to find decent places to live in Fayetteville for under $1200-$1500. That is too high for NWA. Out of state parents pay whatever when it comes to monthly rents on houses.

That's not the primary issue driving rents. Apartment vacancies all over NWA are at all-time lows because the whole area is booming right now. 99.9% of the students live in Fayetteville, but a lot of people prefer living here to Springdale for easy to understand reasons.

Fayetteville average apartment rents are actually somewhat lower than Bentonville. Not everybody can afford to live downtown, but that's ok. There are still affordable places in Fayetteville, if you can find vacancies to meet your need.

The last thing the city needs is a bunch of cheaper apartments.
