"Indy Homelessness Crisis, Cybersecurity Jobs Boom, and More Local Updates"
Good morning, this is Indianapolis Local Pulse for December 27, 2024. We're starting with some breaking news from the past few days. The city is still grappling with the issue of homelessness, as over 100 unhoused residents have died in Indy, sparking calls for progress at their memorial[1].
Moving on to today's job market snapshot, Indiana's total labor force stands at a record high of 3,442,250, with November's total private employment at 2,869,200, a slight decrease from the previous month[2]. However, the cybersecurity job market in Indianapolis is booming, with over 20,000 job openings statewide, particularly in high-demand roles like Security Engineering, Incident Response, and Identity Management, offering average annual salaries of $126,697[5].
In real estate news, there haven't been any major announcements in the past few days, but we're keeping an eye on developments in the Irvington neighborhood, which is undergoing revitalization efforts[3].
From city hall, lawmakers have approved more money for the LEAP District, adding to the total that's in the hundreds of millions[1]. This decision is expected to have a significant impact on the local community.
Weather-wise, it's a chilly morning today, with temperatures expected to rise later in the day. We recommend checking the forecast before heading out to any events.
Speaking of events, there are a few upcoming community activities worth mentioning. On January 31, 2025, WFYI is hosting "Listen Up with Francis Lam | The Splendid Table Live"[1]. Additionally, the Indianapolis Public Library is hosting a free event, "The Public Library Indie Lens Pop-Up," on February 1, 2025.
In local school news, we don't have any major achievements to report today, but we're always on the lookout for stories of success in our community.
On a feel-good note, the Teeny Statue of Liberty museum in Indy is finding a new home, which is sure to delight both locals and tourists[1].
Moving on to today's crime report, the Indianapolis police have been dealing with the issue of in-custody deaths, citing 'excited delirium' as a cause, a diagnosis that has been debunked[1]. We urge everyone to stay informed and safe.
