Most of the DSL is not the slowest kind: 94 of the 493 DSL locations are filed with a top download under 25 Mbps.

Carroll County was in the 2021 Windstream and State of Arkansas fiber program, but that release lists counties and never names Green Forest, so it cannot tell you whether a Green Forest street got fiber from it.
