Fort Worth Worth is nicknamed ‘Cowtown’ and has lots to offer without being pretentious. With a population of 624,067 as on 2005, the town is friendlier than Dallas and infact a cleaner city. The city co-exists with cowboys, cattle auctions, horse drawn carriages on one hand and office towers on the other hand. Aviation, aerospace, and high-technology companies have headquartered in this city. It is easy to get around with I-30 and I-35 running across the city.
