Fort Worth Metro and Neighborhood Information

Fort Worth, Texas, is known as the starting point for 'Where the West Begins,' a throwback to its roots as a cow town. As the fifth-most populated city in Texas, it spans about 300 square miles. The city is harbored by the Trinity River and bordered by bluffs and gently sloping hills that add to the local scenery. Fort Worth was established in 1849 as an army fort named after General William Jenkins Worth, a hero of the Mexican-American War.

The 1917 discovery of oil near Fort Worth would usher in a new era of a tamer Wild West town. The oil find contributed to a residential and economic boom that transformed Fort Worth into a contemporary metropolis.

Even as the city progressed toward modernization, its western roots continue to be one of its biggest tourist draws. For an ultimate view of the past, visitors flock to the Fort Worth Stockyards Historic District, where they can view the Chisholm Trail and bask in the Old West ambience. This area is packed with old-fashioned eateries, saloons, the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame and other authentic venues. The District also offers Wild West re-enactments and is conveniently located just north of the downtown area.

For a more relaxing perspective of the beauty this city has to offer, see the Fort Worth Water Gardens. This oasis amid the fast-paced downtown area was completed in 1974. Its pools and lush gardens span 4.3 acres, a venerated gem in the middle of the central business district. The Fort Worth Water Gardens boasts a reflection pool for meditation, a sparkling aerating pool and an active pool with a soothing 38-foot waterfall. Fort Worth is home to sports teams such as the Brahmas (Central Hockey League) and Tycoons (American Basketball Association).

Although Fort Worth is a great place to visit, it is also a great place to live, according to Partners for Livable Communities, which has voted the town as one of America's most livable major cities. Currently, the median price for homes in the Fort Worth Metro area is $123,000. With an array of neighborhoods featured in the Fort Worth real estate listings, potential home buyers have plenty to choose from.

The whimsical Mistletoe Heights neighborhood rests atop beautiful bluffs that look out over the tranquility of the Trinity River just southwest of the downtown area. An abundance of dignified manors dot tree-filled lots, along with more modern cottages and bungalows, giving this quiet community its vintage charm.

The Bluebonnet Hills community also caters to nostalgia, with many old-fashioned flats and charming 1930s-era, Tudor-style homes for sale. Like Mistletoe Heights, this wistful neighborhood is centrally located just four miles from the city's central business district. The city continues to be an exciting place to call home with rich roots and a bright future, so start your Fort Worth real estate search today!
