We wake up today with a big change at the top of our police department. The City of Charlotte has just sworn in Estella Patterson as the new chief of the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department, with the ceremony held uptown at the Government Center. According to the city, she is stepping in with a promise to increase community policing and visibility around transit lines and in neighborhoods from Beatties Ford Road to South Boulevard.
That focus on safety matters after a violent night on our light rail. ABC11 reports that a man is stabbed in the chest on a Blue Line train near uptown, and another man is now in custody. We still do not know the victim’s condition, but officers are adding patrols around rail platforms this weekend while the investigation continues.
On the broader public safety front, Charlotte Alerts News reports that federal agents carry out a multimillion dollar drug bust just north of the city, tied to cartel activity, with several suspects now facing federal charges. At the same time, NPR reports that the recent immigration crackdown in Charlotte appears to be over, but many families, especially around Central Avenue and Eastway Drive, are still dealing with fear and economic fallout.
Weather wise, we are looking at a cool, dry December day in the Queen City. Skies stay mostly clear, a light breeze makes it feel crisp along Tryon Street and around Freedom Park, and we stay seasonable through tonight. We can plan on similar cool, dry weather into the next couple of days, good for outdoor events and holiday shopping.
Speaking of events, uptown has a festive feel. WCCB highlights the Fourth Ward Holiday Sip and Stroll and Home Tour tonight from five to nine, with historic homes lit up around North Poplar and North Church Streets. Carowinds continues its holiday lights, and local markets are popping up around Camp North End and NoDa.
On the jobs front, the market stays active. Beacon Hill Legal is hiring a word processor for a major law firm here, with pay in the ballpark of fifty to eighty five thousand dollars a year. QuikTrip is posting store clerk positions in southwest Charlotte, and companies like Wells Fargo, ServiceNow, and Actalent are listing higher paying roles in finance, tech, and construction management. ZipRecruiter estimates that advertising professionals in Charlotte now average just over ninety thousand dollars a year.
In real estate, agents report that median home prices around Mecklenburg County are holding in the mid four hundreds, with popular areas like Plaza Midwood and South End still seeing multiple offers, while condos uptown and near SouthPark give buyers a bit more leverage.
In our schools, several CMS high school teams wrap up strong fall seasons, with football and soccer programs from west Charlotte to Mint Hill earning deep playoff runs and band programs performing at holiday parades in uptown.
For a feel good story, community groups in west Charlotte are organizing toy and coat drives along Wilkinson Boulevard and Statesville Avenue, making sure families have what they need heading into the holidays. Volunteers from churches, small businesses, and neighborhood groups are working side by side to support one another.
