Folks looking for jobs in Northwest Arkansas may have a tougher time than in the past. University of Arkansas Economist Kathy Deck says the job boom in our area isnt over, but its not what it used to be. Deck says theres no reason to be worried at this point, but she says with gas prices up and less jobs being created, the Northwest Arkansas economy may drop enough to fall in line with the national average.
