Fort Worth is the seat of Tarrant County. The city had about 1.03 million residents on July 1, 2025, up 11.9% since the 2020 base, and 10.6% of residents were 65 or older, roughly 109,000 people.

That growth matters for marketing. Many adult children shopping for a parent are new to the area and do not know which neighborhoods are close to which hospital. Show your location against landmarks they do know, list the hospitals you receive referrals from, and give clear directions and parking notes for visitors.
The main referral sources include JPS Health Network, Tarrant County's public hospital system, Texas Health Fort Worth, Baylor Scott & White All Saints Medical Center - Fort Worth and Medical City Fort Worth. Give case managers a referral page with your accepted payers, clinical capabilities, admission hours and a direct line. If you take STAR+PLUS, name the plans.
In Fort Worth, 32.6% of residents age 5 and older speak a language other than English at home and about 34.6% of residents are Hispanic or Latino (QuickFacts). The 2020-2024 American Community Survey counts about 15,900 Fort Worth residents 65 and older who speak Spanish at home. Spanish admissions and payment pages are worth the effort, especially for communities on the north and south sides.
Families search by suburb as much as by city: Arlington, Keller, North Richland Hills, Hurst, Benbrook, Burleson and Weatherford. Build location content around the places you really draw residents and patients from, not every city in the Metroplex.
