Don't judge a book by its cover - 3/19/2020
I do not live in this area but it is like every town in america it has its problems. The good thing is its not far from little rock and i am sure people that complain is because of the politics of the area which is very democrat and most of the complainers are republican. Its rich in history and could be fixed up especially with the amount of historic buildings. For the republicans that want to complain you should move to the town i live in which is called Redding,California. I say this because its great if you love to hunt, hike, fish, go to church, Bethel ministries is a big influence in this area, and if your Republican its wonderful because that is is what the major of counties are above the capital. To California as hippie socialist radicals is messed up and have not lived up here in Northern Read More

Pine Bluff - 1/11/2013
The location where I reside is pretty quiet. As far as security goes, a police officer lives across from me, and another across the street. I'm not originally from here, but I have to honestly admit, I am ready to move on. Read More

People can't drive - 11/25/2009
I moved to Pine Bluff from Memphis about 6 months ago (June 2009) for a promotion.

The Cons:
There really aren't any quality restaurants. There's no significant entertainment; they have a movie theater that is really old and doesn't have any of the modern conviences (stadium seating?). There aren't any coffee shops. There is way too much junk food: McDonald's, Wendy's, etc..... There's no whole food stores like World Market. The mall is like Wal-Mart. Wal-Mart is the epicenter of the town (any time Wal-Mart is the main focus/business of your town, you are in some trouble). The roads have a ridiculous amount of pot holes.

The Pros:
The people are genuinely nice. I've been invited to people's homes for dinner, and I barely knew them. Everybody that I have encountered have shown the highest in Southern Hospitality. It's very refreshing. I have noisy neighbors, but that's always the case in an apartment building.

Verdict:Read More

True Pine Bluff 2009 - 2/18/2009
I grew up in Pine Bluff - moved here when I was 4 - graduated from PB high school in themid 80's. I have 4 younger siblings - youngest 3 all born here. My parents still live here. Sadly... PB is fading and in dire economic trouble. The tax base of this city has all moved away - retired and moved to Hot Springs or out of state. This has truly hurt the city. Most 'family owned' businesses have folded. the mall (built in 88 I think) is about 50% vacant b/c stores are shuttered. This city is also very segregated. It is a 'southern' thing but I have never seen such a division anywhere else from both sides of the racial spectrum. Blacks hang with blacks, whites hang with whites. The public school system is about 89% black. All whites send thier children to private schools or to LR schools (and some black families do the same if the want thier kids to get a good education and can afford it or get a scholarship). Whites do it whether than can afford it or not - I know some families that are Read More

Pine Bluff from a Teen's Point of View - 2/23/2008
Pine Bluff is not as bad a place as people make it out to be. It is not progressing that much, but that is the fault of the people living inside. It's the people that make the community. I'm just a student, but the school I go to is very nice. Luckily, Pine Bluff is not far at all from Little Rock, and you can go up there when you want things Pine Bluff doesn't have. Pine Bluff is not perfect, but it's not bad either. It really makes me mad when I hear all of the complaints about it. If you don't like the community, try to do something to change Read More
