Fort Worth, Texas is a dynamic city that blends its storied Western heritage with modern urban energy. Founded in 1849 as a military outpost, it earned the nickname “Cowtown” for its role in the cattle trade and the Chisholm Trail. Today, it’s part of the sprawling Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex and is known for its vibrant arts scene, historic Stockyards, and deep-rooted Texas hospitality. Fort Worth’s growth has made it one of the largest cities in the U.S., while still embracing its frontier spirit.
