Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for January 12, 2025.
We're starting the day with a mix of news that affects our community. First off, let's talk about the weather. A cold front is expected to move through our area today, and we're going to see freezing temperatures next week. This is a reminder to take steps to protect your water pipes from freezing and possibly bursting. The City of Fort Worth has shared resources to help those experiencing homelessness during this cold spell[1].
In job market news, Fort Worth's labor force has seen a steady increase, with approximately 495,000 workers as of October 2024, up 2.87% from the previous year. Major hiring announcements include high-paying tech jobs, with AI Architects leading the charts with salaries over $200,000. Cybersecurity experts are also in high demand, with top positions reaching up to $150,000[2][5].
Moving on to real estate, existing-home sales picked up, and home prices were stable in the third quarter. The average hourly earnings in the Dallas-Fort Worth area are $35.24, with a 3.9% growth year-over-year. However, we don't have any major updates on notable property sales or new development projects today[2].
From city hall, there haven't been any significant decisions affecting daily life in the past few days. However, we're keeping an eye on any changes that might impact our community. The City of Fort Worth has announced that due to inclement weather, the upcoming bid day on January 9th was changed from an in-person meeting to a virtual WebEx meeting[1].
In new business activity, we've seen a few openings and closings around town, but nothing major to report today. Upcoming community events include various local school achievements and sports events, which we'll cover in more detail in the coming days. Don't miss the "New Year, New Me, New Pet" adoption event at Fort Worth City Hall, which took place on January 9th[1].
In crime news, we've had a few incidents in the past 24 hours, including a reported burglary on West 7th Street. The police are investigating, and we'll provide updates as more information becomes available[2].
On a positive note, Fort Worth's tech scene is thriving, with over 20,000 new tech jobs expected to be created by 2025. This growth is driven by significant investments in innovation and the rapidly expanding tech sector[2][5].
This has been Fort Worth Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
