The popular saying goes, "Everything's bigger in Texas!" and Arlington exemplifies that maxim. The city's main attractions are the massive and very modern stadiums of the Dallas Cowboys football franchise and the Texas Rangers baseball club, plus a couple of expansive amusement parks. Arlington is a relatively new city, transforming from a small town of less than 8,000 residents in 1950 into an urban center with more than 350,000 denizens today. The growth of entertainment options has naturally accompanied the growth in population, and the city now offers museums, galleries, theaters, and lively bars and nightclubs. Plan the details of your Arlington holiday and any onward adventuring with our easy-to-use United States holiday planning tool.
