 Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Sunday, December twenty first.

We start on the South Side, where Fort Worth fire crews move quickly overnight to knock down an apartment fire near Hallmark and Afton Road. CBS Texas reports about a dozen residents are displaced, but we are grateful to say no injuries are reported and the cause is still under investigation. Crews have the flames under control in about twenty minutes, and neighbors are already stepping up with clothing and gift card donations.

As we head into the day, we are looking at a cool, cloudy December Sunday in Fort Worth, with a chance of light showers that could make roads damp around I 30 and I 35. Temperatures stay in the 50s and low 60s, so we may want a jacket for church, shopping, and evening events. The short term outlook keeps us seasonable and dry into the early part of the workweek.

From City Hall, we continue to see a push on infrastructure and growth management, especially around the Near Southside and along West Seventh. The council is prioritizing road repairs and signal timing on busy corridors like Camp Bowie and Lancaster, and staff are reminding us that several lane closures may slow our commute tomorrow morning.

In the job market, local staffing agencies report that Fort Worth adds a few hundred seasonal and logistics jobs this month, with warehouse hiring strong along Everman Parkway and in Alliance near I 35. Healthcare and education remain steady employers, with big campuses like JPS and TCU listing dozens of openings.

On real estate, the Greater Fort Worth Association of Realtors says local Realtors are leaning hard into advocacy on housing affordability and property tax policy, trying to keep homeownership within reach as prices around popular neighborhoods like Tanglewood and the Cultural District stay elevated but stable. Inventory sits in the range of just a couple of months of supply, which keeps competition healthy but not overheated.

Culturally, we have a big night at Dickies Arena, where Pentatonix brings their Christmas in the City tour to Fort Worth this evening at seven, with another show tomorrow. Dickies Arena notes that one dollar from every ticket sold for the Fort Worth shows goes to Direct Relief to help Texans affected by recent flooding. Downtown, Downtown Fort Worth Inc is hosting an outdoor screening of Its a Wonderful Life at the Rooftop Cinema Club on top of a downtown garage, adding to the holiday feel around Sundance Square and Main Street.

Sports wise, Fort Worth just hosted the NAIA football national championship at our own Fort Worth venue, where Grand View University finishes a perfect season with a hard fought win, bringing college football energy and visitor dollars into our hotels and restaurants around the Stockyards and downtown.

In local schools, coaches around Tarrant County are closing out winter tournaments, with several Fort Worth ISD basketball teams picking up early season wins that build momentum heading into district play after the holidays.

On the crime front, Fort Worth police and the Tarrant County criminal docket show a typical weekend mix of arrests, with officers focusing on DWI enforcement along West Seventh, University Drive, and around downtown. Police continue to stress that we plan ahead for rides if we are enjoying holiday parties. So far, no major violent incidents are reported overnight beyond routine calls, and investigators are still working active cases from earlier in the week.

For a feel good note, volunteers gather along the Trinity Trails near Panther Island Pavilion yesterday for a holiday cleanup, collecting bags of trash and decorating a few trees with donated ornaments, a small reminder of how much pride our community takes in our riverfront.
