Little Rock / Siloam Springs
Siloam Springs has 18,699 residents (give or take 76) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B01003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B01003?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19), about 1,522 people per square mile.
Siloam Springs is about 158 miles from the Census center point for Little Rock in a straight line and covers 12.282 square miles of land (Census 2024 Gazetteer internal points and land area, https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2024_Gazetteer/, checked 2026-10-19).
Of the 6,498 occupied homes in Siloam Springs, 54% heat with natural gas, 0% with heating oil, 44% with electricity and 1% with propane (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19).
Gas heats 54% of Siloam Springs against electricity at 44%, so most quotes here are a partial-home system that carries the shoulder seasons and the summer while the gas furnace handles the coldest nights, or a whole-home system when the house is ready for it.
Siloam Springs has about the Benton County oil share of 0% and 1 points less electric heat than the county's 45% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25040, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25040?g=050XX00US05007, checked 2026-10-19).
Siloam Springs has 6,960 housing units, 10% built before 1940 and 33% before 1980, with 41% built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19).
Siloam Springs has 8 points more pre-1940 homes than Benton County as a whole (2%) and 11 points fewer homes built after 2000 than the county's 52% (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=050XX00US05007, checked 2026-10-19). An older stock means more insulation upgrades before the heat pump goes in.
The median Siloam Springs home was built in 1995 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25035, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25035?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19) and the median home has 5.6 rooms (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25018, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25018?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19).
69% of Siloam Springs homes are single-family detached, 9% are in two- to four-unit buildings and 9% are in buildings of five or more units (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19).
41% of Siloam Springs homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19), so beside the 69% detached houses there is a real share of jobs where the landlord, not the resident, signs the quote.
Siloam Springs has 5 points fewer detached houses than Benton County overall (74%) (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25024, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25024?g=050XX00US05007, checked 2026-10-19).
41% of Siloam Springs homes are rented (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25003, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25003?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19), so the market splits between resident-led jobs where the occupant picks the system and landlord-led jobs where they do not, and the rebate paperwork differs.
41% of Siloam Springs housing was built in 2000 or later (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B25034, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B25034?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19), and homes that recent usually meet the insulation codes in place at the time, so a heat pump sized to the floor plan lands closer to the real load than it would in an older neighborhood.
No electric utility is on file for Siloam Springs on this door yet, so this page does not name one; the name on the bill decides which rebate path applies.
Median household income in Siloam Springs is $72,065 (ACS 2020-2024 5-year, table B19013, https://data.census.gov/table/ACSDT5Y2024.B19013?g=160XX00US0564370, checked 2026-10-19); many state and utility heat pump rebate programs set higher incentive tiers for income-qualifying households, so the household income on the application, not the town median, decides which level applies.
Heating design temperature: 15F.

That 15F figure is the Benton County cold-day number a Siloam Springs heat pump is sized against, so ask the installer to show the system's heating output at 15F, not at the milder rating-label temperature.
Ask whether the quote is whole-home or partial-home, because with 54% of Siloam Springs on gas and 44% already electric the two paths carry different rebate figures and different sizing.
Ask for the heat-loss calculation room by room; the median Siloam Springs home has 5.6 rooms and was built around 1995, and the count of heads and the tonnage follow the rooms and the insulation, not the square footage.
