Budget-friendly community
Rose City's wide, tree-lined residential streets meander throughout the neighborhood, and home styles comprise bungalows, small ranch-style and new construction. There are a few fixer uppers that are available as investment opportunities. Lots tend to run 1/8 acre or less, suitable for a small garden or gathering area. Prices here range from $35,000 to $189,000. Some homes have garages, but the majority have carports for parking. "I like to compare it to Mayberry," says Shirley Able, assistant director for the NLR Rose City Neighborhood Association, who grew up and raised her children here.High school offers AP and IB classes

School Street Park has two colorful playsets, a basketball court and a multi-purpose grassy field.CIvic-minded citizens lend a helping hand
The community is very civic-conscious, and there are several programs in place that assist disadvantaged locals. The City of Little Rock, in conjunction with the Trinity United Methodist Church, hosts a daily food drive for those who are either unsheltered or in need. A free athletics program run by the North Little Rock Police Athletic League is popular among the youth. "Every season, there's a new sport for the kids in the community," Abel says. A new health clinic is scheduled to open in Rose City in 2024.Rose City has its own mall

On the western end of U.S. Highway 70, Rose City's main thoroughfare, offers a variety of dining options, including Shotgun Dan's Pizza, considered one of the most popular restaurants in the city. Sweet Poppas Cafe has traditional breakfast dishes like biscuits and gravy. Deli-Mart is a local business that offers sandwiches for lunch on weekdays alongside a limited selection of groceries. The biggest shopping complex in Little Rock, McCain Mall, lies only 5 miles northwest via Interstate 40.Close to downtown Little Rock
"What I love about living here is that we're convenient to everything," Abel says. Downtown Little Rock is a 5-mile drive via Interstate 30, and Rock Region METRO has several bus stops in town. Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport is a 7-mile drive on Interstate 440.
