Good morning, this is Omaha Local Pulse for January 5, 2025. We're starting the new year with a look at what's happening in our city.
First off, let's talk about jobs. The job market is looking strong, with over 10,000 new job postings available on Indeed.com for January 2025. Major employers like HCA Healthcare are hiring new graduate RNs, and companies like Medline are offering rotational assignment programs for entry-level candidates. The current unemployment rate in Omaha is at 3.20%, which is lower than the long-term average of 3.67%.
In real estate news, we don't have any major updates on commercial or residential property sales, but we do know that the median home price in Omaha is holding steady. If you're looking for a new place to live, now might be a good time to start searching.
At city hall, the Omaha City Council met on December 17, 2024, to discuss various issues affecting daily life in our city. You can watch the full meeting on YouTube if you're interested in learning more.
The weather is looking chilly today, with temperatures expected to stay in the mid-30s. If you're planning on heading out, make sure to bundle up. The cold weather might impact some outdoor activities, but there are still plenty of things to do indoors.
Speaking of things to do, there are some great community events coming up in the next few days. The Amazing Pizza Machine in Midtown is a fun spot for families, and the Holloway Experience is offering ice skating for those who want to get some exercise.
In local school news, we don't have any major updates, but we do want to give a shout-out to all the students and teachers who are back in class after the holiday break.
Now, let's talk about crime. Fortunately, we don't have any major incidents to report from the past 24 hours. However, we do want to remind everyone to stay safe and aware of their surroundings, especially in crowded areas.
Finally, let's end with a feel-good story. The Spiel bound in Midtown is a new business that's bringing people together with board games and good food. It's a great place to meet new people and have some fun.
This has been Omaha Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
