The Attitude

Worldly, yet humble. Fort Worth has plenty to brag about—but doesn’t. The city vibe is the perfect blend of extraordinarily well done and down home. We love our city’s western heritage and internationally renowned arts scene.

The Food

The barbecue and Tex-Mex cuisine aren’t just delicious, they’re historic. But that’s just the beginning. Fort Worth’s amazing culinary offerings are varied and sophisticated. (But seriously, you can have your taco Tuesday seven days a week.)

The Access

It’s pretty easy to get here, and to get around. Fort Worth is just the right size (the 12th largest city in America), and super accessible. A central hub near America’s fourth busiest airport, we’re smack dab in the middle of the country.

Our Downtown

Okay, we can brag just a little: we have the No. 1 downtown in America. This bright spot offers easy parking, performances, dining and great public spaces. Just minutes from campus, it’s where Fort Worth works by day and plays at night.
