House District 101 Overview & Map
Situated between Dallas and Fort Worth and located entirely in Tarrant County, Texas House District 101 was created by the Legislature in 2011, reflecting the rapid growth of southeast Tarrant County. It was altered during redistricting in 2021 to include additional neighborhoods in Mansfield and Arlington. The district is ethnically diverse, 32% of eligible voters are African American, 32% Anglo, 23% Hispanic, and 10% Asian.
This rapidly growing and diverse district includes communities in central and south Arlington, west and south Grand Prairie and east Mansfield. Major employers in the area include the school districts, the University of Texas at Arlington, General Motors, and Tarrant County College. Great Southwest Industrial Park and Grand Prairie Premium Outlets are also key contributors to the local economy, as well as many thriving small businesses, including a variety of ethnic markets and eateries.
