Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker says state of the city is ‘absolutely strong’

From safety to services, Fort Worth continues to be a city on the rise and a great place to live, Mayor Mattie Parker said in her State of the City address Friday at the Fort Worth Convention Center.

“Our success as a city is contingent upon our commitment to quality of life policies and investments,” Parker said. “People are quite literally voting with their feet. When people could live anywhere, they’re choosing to live in Fort Worth.”

Nothing surprising about the second-term mayor’s positive outlook but it wasn’t just talk. She had facts to back up her message, noting that Southern Living Magazine named Fort Worth the Best Place to Retire for “City Lovers” – and the Pacific Research Institute named Cowtown  the “Most Pro-Growth City in America.”
