The City of Everman is located south of Loop 820 (I-20 West) twelve miles south of downtown Fort Worth, which is a part of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metropolitan Area. The City was incorporated in 1945 and adopted a home rule charter on April 5, 1986 and operates under a council/mayor form of government.

Access from Interstate 35 and Interstate 20 provides the city access to DFW International Airport within 20 minutes.

The City is located in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, which has remained a relatively strong diverse economy in a desirable Sunbelt location. The Metroplex is an eleven county area, which includes major cities of Dallas and Fort Worth with total population exceeding three million people.
