Texarkana is one metro split by a state line that runs down State Line Avenue. Customers cross it without thinking, but licensing, taxes and service areas don’t. Your Google Ads targeting has to respect the line even when your customers ignore it.
Texarkana, Arkansas has about 28,900 residents (U.S. Census Bureau, 2024 estimate) and is the seat of Miller County. It’s the Arkansas half of a twin city with Texarkana, Texas — the two share a downtown, a federal courthouse that straddles the state line, and a commercial strip on State Line Avenue. Major employers in the area include the Red River Army Depot on the Texas side, a large tire plant on the Arkansas side, regional hospitals and distribution operations along I-30 and I-49.
For advertisers, the important fact is that searchers don’t care which side they’re on, but your business might have to. Trades, healthcare and legal providers may be licensed in one state and not the other. Retailers, restaurants and auto dealers can usually serve both. Google’s location targeting treats the two cities as separate places, so a campaign set to only Texarkana, AR can miss half the metro — or a campaign set to the whole area can generate leads you can’t serve.
The metro also draws from surrounding rural counties in Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana. Healthcare and retail campaigns can reach that wider trade area, while service businesses should define radius or county targets based on drive time and licensing.
Directional planning ranges, not quotes. Real CPCs depend on keywords, Quality Score and competitors in both states — your free audit pulls actual figures.
| Niche | Texarkana CPC range | Budget to compete | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Healthcare / specialty clinics | $4 – $18 | $1K – $3K/mo | Four-state regional draw; specific services win |
| Personal injury / legal | $35 – $110 | $3K – $9K/mo | Licensing may limit which side you can serve |
| HVAC / plumbing / roofing | $8 – $30 | $1.2K – $3.5K/mo | Two-state service areas; check licensing first |
| Auto dealers / repair | $1.50 – $8 | $1K – $3K/mo | Buyers cross the line freely; target the full metro |
| Restaurants / retail (State Line Ave.) | $1 – $5 | $600 – $2K/mo | Both-sides targeting; mobile and Maps lead |
These figures come from clients across the country, not Texarkana businesses. They show the targeting discipline we’d apply to a two-state metro.
