About Fort Worth

What you're shopping for power in.

Fort Worth is the 12th-largest U.S. city and the western half of the DFW metro — historically a cattle and rail hub, now a major aerospace, energy, and logistics center. Downtown and the Stockyards are well-preserved historic districts; the explosive growth has been to the north and west.

Climate & bill pattern

Same DFW continental climate as Dallas — hot dry summers, cold winters with hard freezes.

Wider range of home sizes than Dallas — 1,400 sq ft 1950s ranchers in Westcliff, 3,000+ sq ft new builds in far-north Alliance. Run actual usage, not the advertised 1,000 kWh rate.
