About Fort Worth

Fort Worth — the most typically Texan of all Texas cities — began as a tiny outpost on a lonely frontier. Today, this metropolitan area of more than 1 million people blends its cattle and oil heritage seamlessly with an ever-growing, diverse array of new businesses and industries.

Fort Worth was established through the efforts, the courage and the sacrifices of countless men and women; and the story, even in barest outline, is an American saga.
