City of Azle Tx
Posted by Barbara Newton on Saturday, January 30th, 2010 at 8:31am.If you are looking for homes with a little or a lot of land around them, you may want to check out the Azle area.
It is located off state hwy. 199 about 16 miles from downtown Fort Worth. The town is broke up within 3 different counties (Tarrant, Parker and and a little of Wise)
Azle was named with loving memory after Doctor James Azle Steward. The town was recorded as a settlement in the early 1800"s but did not get their official first post office till 1881.
In the early days the area was mostly agrieulture but starting in the 1930s so many farms were sold and devided up to allow the new housing developments that we see a lot of today.
Starting out with just a handfull of people and now there are over 8,000 people living in the new Azle that we know today.
It has been named by some as the "Gateway to Eagle Mountain Lake" due to the easy access thru Azle to the lake. This is another reason why the area has become so popular over the last several years.
If boating or other water sports are on your list of fun things to do, you don't want to miss checking out Azle and the surrounding areas. Also if you enjoy a good game of golf, they have Timbers cross, you don't want to miss that.
As for the schools, which is usually top on the list of important things when making a move. Azle ISD enjoys the Exemplary statius www.azleisd.net and are prowd of all their awards received over the years.
