Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Fort Worth is GeoNames ID 4691930. Its recorded administrative path is Tarrant County → Texas → United States, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. Fort Worth occurs once as a primary city label in this atlas sample; the numeric ID remains the durable source key if names change. The city row itself was updated 2025-06-25; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.
Population position inside fixed cohorts
Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Fort Worth ranks 547 by recorded population. Inside the 43 selected United States entries it ranks 15; inside the 198 entries in its broad region it ranks 74. Its 1,008,106 population value is 1.29 times the 780,995 median for the country cohort and 1.23 times the 816,326 regional median. Fort Worth sits in the second quarter of this atlas's United States population cohort. Fort Worth's recorded value is above the country-cohort median but remains below twice that benchmark. These comparisons describe this selected dataset only; they are not current census rankings or official urban-area boundaries.

Its recorded population is below Fort Worth's. Against Fort Worth, Oklahoma City follows Oklahoma County → Oklahoma → United States in the source.

Fort Worth's nearest-coordinate gap sits in the second quarter of atlas distances. This pattern can reveal whether other catalog references are geographically close, but it cannot establish whether a border crossing is possible or practical, or whether rail, road, fare, or journey-time connections exist. Read as one record signature, GeoNames 4691930, the coordinate pair 32.7254 / 97.3209, country rank 15 of 43, and neighbor GeoNames 4684888 at 48.509 km bind Fort Worth to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Coordinate, time-zone and class cohorts
Fort Worth's reference point is 32.7254° north and 97.3209° west. The IANA identifier America/Chicago is shared by 11 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA2 is shared by 341 rows. Fort Worth's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Fort Worth's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Fort Worth's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames records Fort Worth at 199 metres above sea level, a single reference value rather than a description of slopes across the city. Together these fields form a reproducible identity check for this page, not a claim about walkability, climate or accessibility.
