Once you've packed all your belongings and are ready to hit the road for central Arkansas, it's time to start thinking about moving your money. Unless, that is, you already bank with one of the national banking institutions that operate in this area. While we've got a handful of banks you might at least be familiar with, there are several you're probably not.

So how do you choose one? We've compiled a list of all the banks with branches in the central Arkansas region. Although we've organized them by number of branches in this area, some might be more concentrated, and therefore more convenient, in certain cities or neighborhoods. All that's to say, a trip to their Web sites would be worth it.

Deposites are listed in thouands. Only deposits and branches in the Little Rock-North Little Rock metropolitan statistical areas are accounted for.
