Haltom City

Haltom City is a suburban city located in Tarrant County, approximately six miles from downtown Fort Worth within the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The city functions as a residential community that serves workers throughout the broader regional area.

The city originated as a railway settlement in the early 1900s and was officially incorporated in 1949. It later adopted its Home Rule Charter in 1955 as it developed into an established suburban community.

The Haltom Theater functions as a primary entertainment venue, while ten public parks and a recreation center provide spaces for community gatherings.

The city is easily accessible through multiple highways including US Route 26 and Interstate 820. Visitors can navigate through the road network to explore restaurants, parks, and local shops throughout the area.

A major shopping complex anchored by an H Mart grocery store demonstrates the growing diversity in this suburban area. This development brought expanded retail and dining options to the community.
