The Fort Worth reality: metroplex sprawl and the drive to Dallas
Fort Worth is its own city, but the metroplex sprawls, and a "nearby" photo counter can still mean a freeway trip with the wait once you arrive. The last thing most people want is to drive toward Dallas just for a picture.
Fort Worth has no regional US Passport Agency of its own — the nearest serves the Dallas area, by appointment for urgent travel. For standard applications, USPS acceptance facilities handle the paperwork locally; you bring the compliant photo.
