Baxter County Opioid Dashboard
The landscape of Baxter County is rugged and mountainous, but with a lot of water recreation areas including the White River, North Fork River, Lake Norfork, Bull Shoals Lake and the Buffalo National River. The county also has two hydroelectric dams operated by the Corps of Engineers – Norfork Dam and Bull Shoals Dam. This is a great area to have outdoor activities (hiking, canoeing, swimming, fishing, and more).
But, just like the rest of the state, crime and overdose deaths are increasing. This page is here to show you the trends of the Opioid Crisis. If you want to decrease these trends, visit the rest of our website to find useful resources and information to guide you.
