Communities of Tarrant County

Every city we cover, in one place.

Tarrant County contains 22 incorporated cities and unincorporated places. We're building a dedicated page for each — pulling together history, demographics, what's coming, and how the city ties into the county. Start with the five flagship community pages below; the rest are in the works.

Flagship community pages

  • Arlington — Tarrant's second-largest city — the sports capital that built itself in the gap between Fort Worth and Dallas.
  • Fort Worth — The county seat — where Tarrant County's commissioners, courts, and core institutions live.
  • Grapevine — The historic Main Street city that hosts DFW Airport and calls itself the Christmas Capital of Texas.
  • Mansfield — Southeast Tarrant's fastest-growing city — historic downtown, MISD, and a population that has doubled since 2000.
  • Southlake — The Northeast Tarrant affluence story — Carroll Dragons, Town Square, and the highest-income census tract in North Texas.
