A metroplex is a contiguous metropolitan area that has more than one principal anchor city of near equal importance.
The Dallas and Fort Worth Metroplex is a great place to live and learn.

Pursuing your education at DBU is smart not only because of the outstanding faculty and programs but because of the university’s excellent location.

The Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex is the largest metropolitan area in the South and fourth-largest metropolitan area in the United States. Divided among Collin, Dallas, Denton, Kaufman, and Rockwall counties, the city had a population of around 1,200,000.
