FORT WORTH The day of reckoning has come for Fort Worth, blurring from a distinct metropolitan city into the western sprawl of the DFW metroglob.
A new business plan for the city included wakeup alarms for city leaders:
▪ Our residents are less likely to have a college degree than Houston’s or Dallas’, and nowhere near as well-educated as Denver’s or Austin’s.

He says the city has a reputation for being hostile to foreigners. Uh, no, we’ve got schools going Spanish immersion for everyone because it is easier and cheaper than separate “normal” and bilingual programs.
Fort Worth is broken?
Could have fooled me. A mite chilly at the moment, yes. Broken, I don’t think so.
Kinda like the ol’ place.
“Fort Worth has a Republican mayor, so they must have something going for them.”
Betsy Price is no conservative. She was the tax collector for Tarrant county, so that’s how she got name recognition. Sorry to tell you but cowtown is a sanctuary city catering to the illegals.
She is a huge rino. A fake conservative to say the least.
Fort Worth is little Mexico on the south side.
That is my point. Thanks.
Bud’s brain is broken.
Yep. My old neighborhood on the south side is holding its own against the onslaught, pretty much a little oasis surrounded by a sea of third-worlders. I grew up there and could see even then the deterioration encroaching. A once thriving, unique (for that time period) outdoor shopping mall was swallowed by the squalor and is now not much more than a Mexican flea market.
