In breaking news, garbage collection is disrupted across Seattle and much of Western Washington due to a multi-state strike at Republic Services. The work stoppage began yesterday morning with workers protesting unfair labor practices. Many neighborhoods are seeing delayed or missed pickups, so we encourage everyone to leave bins out and check for updates from the city and Republic Services directly.
Now, let’s check in with City Hall. New middle housing legislation is officially in effect as of July first, opening the door for more accessory dwelling units and diverse housing options in our residential neighborhoods. This marks a push to address Seattle’s ongoing housing crunch, with city leaders hoping to see more flexible, affordable choices spring up over the coming months.
In real estate, the market continues to be fiercely competitive. Home prices in King County have averaged around nine hundred thousand dollars this month, while rental inventory remains tight. The city’s efforts to expand housing types should help, but for now, buyers and renters are still seeing bidding wars, especially near popular spots like Green Lake, Ballard, and Capitol Hill.
On the job front, Seattle’s unemployment rate remains below four percent. Tech, healthcare, and transportation roles are still leading new listings, and summer brings upticks in seasonal and gig job openings, especially downtown and along the waterfront.
Moving to transportation, Seattle’s Bike and Scoot to Transit program has expanded for the summer. Our transit agencies are encouraging more residents to bike or scoot to light rail and bus connections, aiming to ease congestion and add flexibility for commuters.
Turning to crime and public safety, Seattle Police have not reported any major incidents overnight, though they continue to ask for vigilance in the downtown corridor after a brief uptick in car prowls along Pine Street. Please remember to secure your vehicles and report suspicious activities.
In the world of culture and music, the Capitol Hill Block Party kicks off this weekend, promising three days of live music and local food vendors. Don’t miss the Seattle Art Museum’s new exhibit opening tomorrow, and the Fremont Outdoor Movies series continues Saturday night.
For sports, the Mariners send three players to the All-Star Game this year, with Julio Rodriguez, Woo, and Munoz representing Seattle. The team continues its playoff push with a home stand starting tonight at T-Mobile Park.
Quick shoutout to Garfield High School’s robotics team for their recent win at the regional championships. And for a feel-good community note, volunteers at Rainier Beach Urban Farm just surpassed last year’s harvest record, donating over two thousand pounds of fresh produce to local food banks.
