About this city
Rogers is a booming, highly progressive commercial powerhouse and cultural hub situated beautifully atop the Ozark plateau in Northwest Arkansas. Founded in 1881 as a vital shipping depot during the rapid construction of the St. Louis–San Francisco Railway, the city expanded phenomenally over the decades. Today, Rogers blends high-tech corporate office districts and sprawling shopping centers like Pinnacle Hills Promenades with a romantic, beautifully brick-paved historic old downtown, while anchoring the shores of scenic Beaver Lake.
