Arlington today ranks among the 50 most populous cities in the country, but which began life as a struggling and besieged frontier fort established when Texas was still a republic. Fifteen U.S. cities, towns and villages across the nation bear the name "Arlington," the largest of which in both area and population— as befits the bigger-in-Texas mode — resides in the Lone Star state. With a population of more than 365,000 and spread across 100 square miles, Arlington is located precisely midway between Dallas and Fort Worth. In both population and area it has a unique distinction other than its 49-in-population standing. It is the largest "mid" city in America.

Arlington's local attractions:

  • Home to the Dallas Cowboys & Texas Rangers
  • Six Flags over Texas, Hurricane Harbor and UTA Planetarium.
  • Lincoln Square is Located just 1/4 mile west of the Ballpark, the Convention Center and only 1/2 mile west of Six Flags Over Texas, Lincoln Square sits at a unique crossroads where food and fashion meet world class entertainment and all year fun!
