Fort Worth
Life in the City
Fort Worth has a great downtown, amazing restaurants, museums, history, a major university, botanic gardens, and a great nightlife. It also is a great size; it’s big enough to have everything you might want, but small enough to be manageable.
In our opinion, we think it is the best city in Texas-- and apparently we're not alone in that sentiment since Fort Worth has been voted one of the "most livable cities in America."
