Did you know? Last year, Fort Worth added more residents than any other big city in the country, according to recent census data, and that number is likely to just keep going up. One of the biggest perks is that when you live or relocate here, it’s never been so easy to find an amazing place to live — like Walsh, one of FTW’s most unique communities.

Walsh is currently home to 2,500+ residents seeking a community-focused lifestyle (plentiful gathering spaces, socializing opportunities and events, trails + parks) without compromising on location. Walsh has also curated a rich selection of timeless home designs and architectural styles, so each and every neighborhood is unique.

Sounds nice, right? If a great location, beautiful homes, and exceptional community sound like your ideal place to live, then good news: Walsh is entering its next phase of growth with two new neighborhoods and 300+ homes.
