I don't dislike Dallas... much.

I just don't like when the 15th largest city in the United States is assumed to "belong" to Dallas as well as Dallasites pretending to care about Ft. Worth when it's useful to them.

I live in Irving so I love Fort Worth and Dallas both. If you live in dull old Irving you are super envious of them.

But Boi, I think JJG has a valid point.

Sadly, most people would have to google Ft Worth to find that out. I wish Ft Worth would focus more on urban development and not suburban style track housing. The city has so much potential but (I feel like) people would rather keep it the same. Some are afraid that “Ft Worth will become like Dallas”. I believe it is possible to keep the western culture that Ft Worth is known for, but also bring the city up to date.

The Ft Worth logo on the city’s water towers and street signs is very suburban to me (even though the city is not a suburb).

I don't....all I did was post a Forbes lkst and announced that the two were separated. I didnt use fort worth for anything....I did say Ft.Worth out ranked Houston but only in response to a bitter Houstonian. So I apologize JJG and Ft.Worth for acknowledging your progress.
