Requesting recommendations in NWA somewhere between Fayetteville and Siloam Springs?

Hello all! Once I get a better hang on adulting, I hope to move in with my girlfriend, or some friends if that doesn't work out.
Assuming it does- my girlfriend doesn't want to live way too far away from her family (who live in Tulsa), but I'm not too comfortable leaving Arkansas quite yet.

Are there any (good/decent) cities between Fayetteville and Tulsa, or somewhere maybe a bit variant?

I was thinking Siloam Springs or less ideally Centerton at first impressions, I only saw people saying they liked living there. I prefer quieter areas, I can't stand hearing cars all day.

Culture isn't very important to me, as long as the people are nice. Hopefully decent police, but that might be a big ask...

Thank you for considering my questions! Have a lovely day.
