Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Friday, January 10, 2025. We're starting the day with a mix of news and updates that impact our daily lives.
First off, let's address the recent incidents that have shaken our community. Unfortunately, Fort Worth has seen its first two homicides of 2025, with a domestic dispute and an apparent car burglary leading to these tragic events. Our thoughts are with the families affected by these incidents.
Moving on to the job market, we have some positive news. The latest data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics shows that the Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington metropolitan area has seen a significant increase in employment, with 58,700 new jobs added over the year as of August 2024. This growth is particularly notable in the education and health services sector, which added 14,600 jobs, and in financial activities, which added 10,700 jobs. The current labor force in Fort Worth, Tarrant County, stands at approximately 495,000, up 2.87% from the previous year.
In real estate news, we don't have any major updates on notable property sales or new development projects today. However, we'll keep an eye on any significant changes in the market and bring them to you as soon as possible. Existing-home sales picked up in the third quarter, and home prices were stable.
From city hall, there are no major updates that affect daily life at this time. However, we'll continue to monitor any developments and bring them to you promptly.
Weather-wise, today is expected to be partly cloudy with a high of 58 degrees Fahrenheit. We recommend checking the forecast regularly for any updates that might impact your plans.
In new business activity, we have a few openings to report. A new coffee shop is set to open on Magnolia Avenue, and a local boutique is expanding its operations on West 7th Street. We'll provide more details as they become available.
Upcoming community events include the Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District's weekly cattle drive on Saturday and a free concert at the Levitt Pavilion on Sunday.
In local school achievements, the Fort Worth Independent School District has announced several students who have been selected for the All-State Band. Congratulations to these talented students.
On a feel-good note, a local community group has organized a food drive to support families in need. If you're interested in donating or volunteering, please visit their website for more information.
In today's crime report, the Fort Worth Police Department has issued a public safety alert following a string of burglaries in the Ridglea neighborhood. Residents are advised to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity.
This has been Fort Worth Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
