Tarrant County Information

With nearly two million people, Tarrant County is home to Fort Worth, which is one half of the sprawling Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. In Tarrant, the charm of the Old West meets the fast-paced lure of modern times. It is a place where you can witness an old fashioned cattle drive and take in a contemporary art show on the same day. The County truly is a blending of eras, and whether you live there or are just visiting, you'll quickly find that there is a lot to see and do in this part of Texas.

Tarrant County's Wild West history has not been forgotten. While the saloons and dance halls have been replaced with modern-day bars and nightclubs, the area still embraces its colorful past and fondly remembers the days of old. Museums featuring relics of the Old West dot the County, and the historic stockyards in Fort Worth have been transformed into one of the area's biggest tourist attractions, complete with cattle drives and rodeos. Restaurants serving up Texas staples of steak, burgers, and other cowboy grub can be found alongside trendy Asian fusion cafes and European bistros. If you're the outdoorsy type, Tarrant County has something for you as well. Eagle Mountain Lake is a popular choice for locals and other visitors who enjoy fishing, hiking, picnicking, bird watching, and more. The 400-acre park has been largely untouched, so visitors get a glimpse of the natural, native beauty of the area. When you're in Tarrant County, it truly does not matter what your interests are - there is something to satisfy everyone.
