Corrections
When a number we published turns out to be wrong, we fix it and record it here, newest first. Normal data updates and revisions by the source agency are not listed; the charts show those as they arrive.
Company capital spending by quarter (Walmart, Tyson, J.B. Hunt)
- What was wrong
- Quarterly capital spending showed only each company's first fiscal quarter correctly; later quarters were year-to-date totals.
- What we changed
- Each quarter is now the year-to-date figure minus the prior quarter's year-to-date figure within the same fiscal year, as filed with the SEC.
- Where it showed
- Company spending chart and table

2020 Census city counts (Holiday Island)
- What was wrong
- Holiday Island was missing from the 2020 Census list because it was a census-designated place in 2020, not an incorporated town.
- What we changed
- Added it from the Census Designated Places layer and flagged it as a CDP; county totals for incorporated places now leave CDPs out.
- Where it showed
- City population table

Washington County home-loan dollars, 2025
- What was wrong
- Washington County's 2025 home-improvement loans showed 493 loans totaling $2.46 billion (about $5.0 million each), which more than doubled the county's 2025 loan dollars to $4.37 billion.
- What we changed
- Raw totals are kept, but the chart now uses a total that excludes the flagged category ($1.91 billion) and the loan count, with a note.
- Where it showed
- Home-loan chart

Regional transportation plan funding lines (NWARPC TIP)
- What was wrong
- 33 projects' funding lines didn't add up to the printed total, and their federal share defaulted to zero.
- What we changed
- Fixed the reader for wrapped fund names; 4 rows still don't add up because of printing slips in the source, and their federal share now shows as unknown instead of zero.
- Where it showed
- Road projects table

Yearly ARDOT contract award totals for NWA
- What was wrong
- Yearly totals were built from only 17 of 163 bid lettings because most source PDFs are scans the reader couldn't parse, so they understated awards.
- What we changed
- Yearly totals are pulled from publication and labeled partial, with the number of lettings used vs listed.
- Where it showed
- Road contracts chart (withheld)

Map locations for new Bentonville permits and ARDOT jobs
- What was wrong
- 10 Bentonville permits in new subdivisions and 3 ARDOT jobs had no map location.
- What we changed
- Added the state address-point layer as a fallback (6 of 10 permits now mapped) and city-level badges for ARDOT jobs that name a city.
- Where it showed
- Near-me map

Springdale Planning Commission agendas
- What was wrong
- Our Springdale agenda files for Aug 4 and Sep 1, 2026 listed only 7 highlighted cases each; the full agendas had dozens.
- What we changed
- Springdale agendas are now read in full from the city's Agenda Center (Jan-Oct 2026), with applicant names shown only for organizations.
- Where it showed
- Meetings and Development tracker

Fayetteville September 2026 permits
- What was wrong
- The site showed a half-month count for September (194 permits) as if it were the full month.
- What we changed
- Corrected to the full month: 537 permits, $49.0 million (building permits only: 104, $39.7 million).
- Where it showed
- Permits page

Ticker label for regional employment
- What was wrong
- The ticker said 'NWA JOBS' for a count of employed residents, which is a different measure from jobs located here.
- What we changed
- Relabeled 'NWA EMPLOYED'.
- Where it showed
- Home page ticker

- What was wrong

Bentonville rezoning RZ25-0004 target zone

- Where it showed
- Bentonville pipeline
