Dalworthington Gardens, Texas

Dalworthington Gardens is a city in Tarrant County, Texas, United States and a suburb of Arlington.

The purpose of the homestead program was to help families attain a better standard of living through a combination of part-time industrial employment and subsistence agriculture.

Of the five sites selected for this program, Dalworthington "colony" as it was originally called, is the only one still in existence today.

Since it has been in constant operation from its inception, it maintains its original zoning regulations, which allow subsistence farming and livestock on any lots over one-half acre that remain owned and occupied from the time the zoning was first put into effect.

The proximity of the already established Arlington ISD led to the entirety of Dalworthington Gardens being served by the AISD since the middle of the 20th century.
