Tech Boom, Home Prices Rise, Niners Lose Nail-Biter, Woolworth Reunion, and More - Charlotte Local Pulse

  • サマリー

  • Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for March 1, 2025.

    We're starting off with some exciting news from the job market. Charlotte's tech scene is booming, with the city now ranked 20th among top tech cities in the nation. Over 50,000 tech workers call Charlotte home, and the sector is expected to grow by 15% this year. Cybersecurity is particularly hot, with roles like Cloud Security Architect commanding salaries of $150,000 or more. This growth is great news for our local economy and real estate market.

    Speaking of real estate, the median home price in Charlotte has risen to nearly $430,000 as of last fall. This increase reflects the strong demand driven by our growing job market. If you're thinking of buying or selling, now might be a good time to make your move.

    In sports news, our Charlotte 49ers baseball team had a nail-biter yesterday against Arkansas. Despite jumping out to an early lead, they ultimately fell 11-10 in a high-scoring affair. All nine Niners in the starting lineup recorded at least one hit, showing some promising offense. They'll look to even the series today at 3 p.m.

    On the track, our Charlotte women's team is leading the pack after day one of the American Athletic Conference Indoor Track & Field Championships. They're sitting pretty with 42 points, ahead of UTSA and South Florida. We're rooting for them to bring home the gold as the competition wraps up today.

    In community news, former Woolworth employees in nearby Greensboro reunited after more than 60 years. This heartwarming story reminds us of the important role our region played in the civil rights movement.

    Looking ahead to today, CATS riders should be aware of bus detours due to the YMCA Corporate Cup 5K, Half Marathon & Half Marathon Relay, and the Charlotte FC game. Check the CATS website for specific route changes before heading out.

    For those participating in or cheering on the races, we're looking at a beautiful day with sunny skies and temperatures in the mid-60s. Perfect weather for running or spectating!

    In public safety news, we're keeping an eye on developments following a medical helicopter crash near the Pender County line earlier this week. Three people were injured in the incident, and we're wishing them a speedy recovery.

    On a brighter note, the deadline for applications for partial property tax refunds is coming up on March 1st. If you think you might be eligible, be sure to get your application in to the Charlotte County Property Appraiser's office today.

    This has been Charlotte Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
