Sundance Square is a lot of fun and someone who was born and bred in NY can really get a taste of country music and such. Lot of bars down there and good restaurants. Unfortunately in my experience it was about all downtown Fort Worth had to offer.

In terms of living around or near Fort Worth...Coppell is a great option, not exactly around the corner, but for years now the development has happened northwest of Dallas, as the "Metroplex" expands even more. Colleyville is supposed to be nice...I haven't heard much negative about Hurst, Euless, Bedford, and North Richland Hills is close by and very economically priced.

I went to school in Irving, which is a ways from Fort Worth, but some of the smaller cities in between are nice and ridiculously affordable when compared to the northeast.

I went to the University of Dallas...basically in between Las Colinas and regular old Irving. We were treated daily to a prime view of Texas Stadium. What a sight.
