Never been there, but have been in and out of northern Arkansas on business and for trout fishing, kayaking, camping. Never been bothered, but of course I am white. I will say, when talking with locals, I never picked up, they were particularly racist. I never saw signs like that, either, but not terribly surprised, to hear that particular small town is associated with KKK, as I did verify your statement before responding.

You probably won't pick that up because you're going to get treated with respect. Of course in any town like that there are going to be some who are not racist.

That, plus being an outsider and some people think I look like a cop, anyway, which still surprises me.

I have been around the area since 1986 before that I lived in Oklahoma and the KKK grand wizard was in Miami, Ok in 1980 when I went to college there. I live in SW Mizzouri three miles from Arkansass and about five miles from Okiehoma.

Everybody is racist. It's human nature.
To say you aren't racist is claiming you are a liar.
