Where Is Far North Fort Worth? Northern Fort Worth Is Growing

June 11, 2022

  • Far North Fort Worth
  • Community
  • New Homes

The neighborhoods in northern Tarrant County and south-central Denton County have enjoyed increased popularity in the last few years. This Far North Fort Worth area is a booming center of growth that attracts thousands of homebuyers year after year.

Where Is Far North Forth Worth?

The definition of Far North Fort Worth has somewhat changed in recent years.  The term used to refer to the very northernmost portion of Tarrant County, which included towns like Haslet, Keller, Southlake, Saginaw, Melody Hills, Lake Worth, and Eagle Mountain, among others.

Since 2020, parts of southern and central Denton County are also considered to be part of this popular area.  Cities like Roanoke, Justin, Northlake, and Argyle are Fort Worth suburbs that are now included in the Far North Fort Worth real estate region.

Recent Far North Fort Worth Development

The area north of the city of Fort Worth has seen rapid development in the last decade. Far North Fort Worth is a site of booming neighborhoods and thriving businesses, and that’s reflected in the suburban growth in the area. Fort Worth itself is now the third fastest-growing city in the nation.  Denton County grew by 3.9% from 2020 to 2021, which represents a much faster annual growth rate than that of Tarrant County.

Individual City Growth

In terms of individual Fort Worth suburbs, census data shows a dramatic shift away from dense urban centers toward smaller neighborhoods in the suburbs. Consider this data from World Population Review:

  • Northlake: 136.26% growth from 2010 to 2022
  • Roanoke: 74.42% growth since the 2010 census
  • Argyle: 50.31% growth since 2010
  • Saginaw: 28.09% growth since 2010
  • Southlake: 24.36% growth from 2010 to 2022

These suburbs of Fort Worth are seeing more move-ins, with many new residents coming from larger cities in the area, and from other states across the country.

Why the Change?

This shift toward the suburbs shows that the priorities of homebuyers are changing. Since the pandemic, people are spending more time at home, so they are prioritizing more land, larger yards, better community amenities (like pools, parks, walking trails, etc.), and easier access to outdoor recreation. Commute times to the office have become less important since many individuals now work virtually. This means people are more comfortable living farther from urban areas, including Fort Worth and Dallas.

Far North Fort Worth New Homes

As the priorities of homebuyers change, the market has shifted to meet their needs. New home communities in the suburbs north and northwest of Fort Worth are booming as they offer the attractive housing and community amenities people are looking for.

For instance, the award-winning Harvest by Hillwood (located in Argyle and Northlake) offers many attractive amenities, including parks, fields, walking and biking trails, pools, and a working farm and community garden! These shared spaces give residents plenty of opportunities to enjoy recreational activities, build friendships with neighbors, and enjoy the natural beauty of the area.

Fortunately, living in a suburban Fort Worth new home community doesn’t mean being far from work or shopping.  Northwest Fort Worth is experiencing tremendous growth in commercial development as well, especially along the Alliance Corridor.  Alliance Texas is one example.  This mixed-used development north of Fort Worth includes retail, office, and industrial space with easy access to Alliance Airport and the Global Logistics Hub.
