DALLASDowntown serves as the hub for Dallas, with key transportation links emanating like spokes from the center. It is also the cultural center of the city, with the 19-block Dallas Arts District and the city’s major arts venues, including the AT&T Center for the Performing Arts.
Dallas Fort Worth International Airport sits just northwest of the city. Dallas is home to several general-use airports, such as Dallas Love Field, which includes commercial passenger service via Southwest Airlines and Alaskan Airlines/Virgin America. The corporate headquarters for a number of Fortune 500 companies are in Dallas, such as Atmos Energy, Dean Foods, Southwest Airlines, Texas Instruments and TopGolf.
Dallas also is the home to major educational institutions such as UT Southwestern Medical Center, Southern Methodist University, and the Dallas campus of the University of North Texas.
