Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Sunday, January eleventh.
We start downtown near the Convention Center, where hundreds of our neighbors rally over federal immigration enforcement. CBS Texas reports roughly three hundred people gather late Friday, marching through downtown with Fort Worth police monitoring to keep things peaceful. Demonstrators call for immigration authorities to pull back from neighborhoods, and similar protests are happening across the country. We feel that energy right in the heart of our city.
At City Hall, our council is gearing up for key talks this week. Hoodline reports they are set to discuss the proposed twenty twenty six bond package, new cultural initiatives, and a federal traffic safety grant. That means possible money for roads, sidewalks, and arts programs that touch our daily routines from commutes on West Seventh and East Lancaster to weekends in the Cultural District. The council will also review new board appointments from Mayor Parker, shaping who helps oversee public health and emergency medical policy here.
Weather wise, we wake up mild and a bit breezy across Tarrant County. We expect a mix of sun and clouds today, with afternoon highs in the upper fifties to low sixties, cooler near the Trinity River and downtown high rises. A weak front keeps winds light but may bring a few late clouds. For our plans, it looks good for a walk around the Stockyards or a coffee run along Magnolia Avenue, with a cool but comfortable evening and only a small chance of drizzle overnight.
On the community and culture side, families are still buzzing about the new Peppa Pig Theme Park Dallas Fort Worth over in North Richland Hills, just off Loop 820. North Texas e News reports it is now ranked number seven on USA Today’s list of best new attractions in the country, which is a big win for our region’s family tourism scene.
Looking ahead, we have local music on tap along West Seventh and South Main tonight, with small venue shows adding life to Sunday evenings. Over in the Near Southside, art spaces are hosting January gallery hours, giving us a quiet way to close out the weekend.
In schools, district reports highlight several Fort Worth ISD basketball teams picking up early district wins Friday night, including strong showings from programs on the east and south sides. Those victories bring a little extra pride to campus halls tomorrow morning.
On public safety, Fort Worth police report a relatively calm overnight period, with no major citywide incidents announced as of early morning. Tarrant County’s online criminal docket lists routine arrests for traffic, warrants, and minor offenses. We still keep an eye on activity along I thirty five West and East Lancaster, but there are no broad alerts in effect right now.
In real estate and jobs, local brokers say median listing prices inside the loop are now hovering around the mid three hundreds, with new townhome projects near the Hospital District and along South Main. Recruiters report steady hiring in logistics and warehousing around Alliance, with hourly roles starting near the high teens and office support positions in the mid forties annually, giving job seekers some options to explore this week.
For a feel good note, volunteers along the Trinity Trails spend yesterday morning picking up trash from Panther Island to Forest Park, filling dozens of bags and making our riverfront cleaner for walkers, runners, and cyclists today. Small efforts like that change how we all experience our city.
