Arlington, TX | The History

A few European settlers had already arrived in the area by the time that a trading post was built in 1841. Attracted by the rich soil and abundant water, the first settlers were primarily farmers. However, the area remained sparsely populated until the railroad founded the town of Arlington in 1876. By 1880, Arlington had 163 residents and an economy that revolved primarily around farming and cotton-ginning. By 1910, the city’s population was almost 1,800, and residents had a full range of utility services, including telephone, natural gas, water and electricity.

Arlington began to grow rapidly after a General Motors plant was built in 1954, reaching a population of 44.775 in 1960. In 1961, the first Six Flags theme park was built in Arlington, boosting tourism and encouraging the construction of many new hotels, restaurants, entertainment venues and shopping centers.

The city is also the home of the University of Texas at Arlington, currently the fourth-largest university in Texas. Founded as Arlington College in 1895, the school became the Carlisle Military Academy in 1902. The school underwent a variety of name and format changes until becoming a part of the UT system in 1965. Today, UTA covers 420 acres, has approximately 42,000 students and is a well-known research university. The university remains an integral part of Arlington’s economic base.
