Six places on this list are only partly in Parker County, and their table populations are
\ncitywide, not county-specific. Mineral Wells sits mostly in Palo Pinto County, with only a slice
\nreaching east into Parker. Azle and Briar are centered in Tarrant and Wise counties; Briar’s
\nCDP boundary also touches a corner of Parker. Cresson sits at the meeting point of Hood, Johnson
\nand Parker counties, with most of its area in the other two. Reno’s city limits are mostly in
\nParker, but a small portion extends into Tarrant County — and it is a different city from
\nReno in Lamar County, Texas, on the opposite side of the state. Fort Worth’s vast city limits
\ninclude a narrow annexed strip in eastern Parker County near Hudson Oaks and Willow Park; its
\npopulation, over 900,000 citywide, is not a meaningful Parker County figure and is omitted above.<\/p>\n
