What it’s like
The place. Redfield is a small city where most households own the home they live in, and the share of owners is higher than it is in many places. The typical age is somewhat older than the national middle, and fewer adults hold a four-year degree than across the country as a whole. Winters are mild and short, with only a dusting of snow in most years, and summers get hot, with plenty of rain through the year.
Work. Many residents work in transport, warehouses and utilities, in schools, hospitals and social care, in government, or in the building trades. Across Jefferson County, the largest workplaces include Tyson Poultry, Jefferson Regional Medical Center and the University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff. The county has seen a small dip in jobs lately, and the commute to work runs a bit longer than many people expect from a small city.
Things to do. The larger draws are a longer drive away. The Clinton Presidential Center is a museum, the Little Rock Zoo is a zoo, and Plum Bayou Mounds Archeological State Park is an archaeological site where visitors can learn about the area's earliest history. Each makes a good day out rather than a quick errand.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Redfield’s census tracts, against the rest of the country; all of them together, relatively high. It is meant for planning, not a substitute for a local risk assessment or a flood map: FEMA’s index.
From the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 census and its American Community Survey (2020–2024 five-year estimates), and the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A survey, so each figure has a margin of error, and figures it is not sure of are left out. More on Jefferson County and the Pine Bluff, AR metro.
