What it’s like
The place. Tyronza is a small city in Poinsett County, Arkansas, and the population skews somewhat older than younger. Winters are cold and summers are warm, with rain and melted snow spread through the year. Few adults here hold a four-year degree, and incomes across the county run below the national picture.
Work. Residents work mostly in schools, hospitals and social care, with manufacturing, shops, and transport and warehousing close behind. Across Poinsett County, some of the largest workplaces are the Harrisburg School District, Walmart and the Trumann School District. Unemployment across the county has eased over the past year, and the county has added jobs. The typical commute is a long one, and very few people work from home.
Things to do. For time outdoors, Lake Poinsett State Park and Wapanocca National Wildlife Refuge are both protected areas a longer drive away. Memphis is also a longer drive away, and it holds the Blues Hall of Fame, a museum devoted to the music that grew up in this part of the country. The National Civil Rights Museum is another well-known museum in the same direction.

FEMA’s National Risk Index (December 2025) rates the risk each natural hazard poses to the people, buildings and farms in Tyronza’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 Poinsett County and the Jonesboro, AR metro.
