Fort Worth is the fifth-largest city in the state of Texas and the seventeenth-largest city in the United States. Situated in North Texas and a cultural gateway into the American West, Fort Worth covers nearly 300 square miles.
It went from a sleepy outpost to a bustling town when it became a stop along the legendary Chisholm Trail, the dusty path where millions of cattle were driven North to market. Fort Worth became the center of the cattle drives, and later, the ranching industry. Its location on the Old Chisholm Trail, helped establish Fort Worth as a trading and cattle center and earned it the nickname "Cowtown."

Fort Worth is a city in Texas. It constantly competes with Dallas due to some kind of yuppie penis envy. If you live there and you are not a.) a yuppie, b.) someone studying to become a yuppie, c.) in a gang, d.) a crackhead, or b.) a suburban poser trying to be hip and gorging yourself on a strict diet of mainstream while disguised as some kind of rebel (usually designated by piercings, tattoos, and top-40 crap), you are likely to be bored and alienated here. In fact, you might experience simultaneous homicidal and suicidal ideation. I feel for you.
Fort Worth should really be called fucking Fort Worthless. I hate this boring yuppie shithole that sucks the life out of me.

Save yourself some time and just move to Dallas. On the bright side, the city DOES have some of the deepest pockets (insert Southlake/Westlake) and prettiest women around. It is the location of TCU, afterall... but the majority of Fort Worth is unfortunately flooded with 'hipsters', pseudo-artists, 'new-age-hippies' and other losers of the like. The famous Stockyards can be fun and, from time to time, draws some pretty big country performers (if you're into that sort of thing), but once the novelty wares off, you're left simply left with the above.

The 5th Largest City in Texas, located about 40 miles West of Dallas. It's only redeeming quality is that this guy Collin lives there.
