Arlington neighborhoods
The Entertainment District is the cluster of stadiums, parks and hotels northeast of downtown, around Randol Mill Road and Collins Street. It started with a theme park: Six Flags Over Texas, the first park of the chain, opened on 212 acres on August 5, 1961. The ballparks came later. AT&T Stadium, with its retractable roof, opened in 2009, Globe Life Field in 2020, and the National Medal of Honor Museum on March 25, 2025.
Downtown Arlington grew up beside the Texas and Pacific Railway, where the city was founded in 1876. The University of Texas at Arlington, founded in 1895, has its 420-acre main campus at the southern edge of downtown, and the Levitt Pavilion puts on about 50 free concerts a year. Viridian, in the north near the Trinity River, is a master-planned community of lakes and trails that connect to River Legacy Park.

Living in Arlington
Arlington is in Tarrant County, about 12 miles east of downtown Fort Worth and 20 miles west of downtown Dallas. It was founded in 1876 on the Texas and Pacific Railway and incorporated on April 21, 1884. Freight trains still use that line, but no passenger train stops in the city.
Interstates 20 and 30 cross the city from east to west, and State Highway 360 runs along its eastern side. For years Arlington was the largest U.S. city without public transit. Via Arlington, a shared ride you book in an app, began in December 2017 and has covered the whole city since January 19, 2021.

Questions about Arlington
Is there a train station in Arlington?
Not inside the city. The Trinity Railway Express runs along the northern city limits, and the closest station is CentrePort/DFW Airport, in Fort Worth near Trinity Boulevard and State Highway 360. Via Arlington rides go there.
Can I live in Arlington without a car?
It takes planning. There are no fixed bus routes, but Via Arlington covers the whole city on demand, and Arlington RAPID runs self-driving rides in downtown and around UT Arlington.
What does a two-bedroom cost in Arlington?
Where most two-bedrooms start, from our own checks, is in the rent section of this page. Each community’s page shows its own rent and the day we checked it. We confirm today’s rent before a place goes on your list.
Which school districts serve Arlington?

Is AptViva free for renters?
