Tarrant County sits at the heart of the DFW metroplex and is influenced by several major airfields: DFW International Airport on the eastern edge, Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth hosting F-16, F-35, and F-18 tactical aircraft, Fort Worth Meacham International Airport, Alliance Airport cargo operations, Arlington Municipal Airport, and Grand Prairie Municipal Airport. Under federal preemption (49 U.S.C. 40103 and FAR Part 150) the county and cities cannot restrict aircraft operations, flight paths, or engine run-ups.

Disclosure of proximity to airfields is handled through the Texas Property Code seller disclosure process, and DFW operates a formal noise complaint portal.
