City Hall went quiet, but your housing market didn't

Your City Hall was quiet but the housing market wasn't

Good morning from the coulees — the wind's up, the sky's wide, and Lethbridge has something to say.

Look, this past week, City Hall was quieter than a deer grazing near the *Sik-ooh-kotok* (Oldman River) in the early morning. It felt like a deep breath, or maybe the calm before another gust of prairie wind. We didn't see much in the way of new announcements or big debates coming out of the chambers. It's not often you get a stretch like this, especially as we head towards summer.

### What Was Moving

Even with the quiet, there were things happening that affect folks right here in Lethbridge. The housing market, for one, didn't take a break. We've been watching:

* Home sales kept a steady pace, showing folks are still looking to settle down in this corner of southern Alberta.

* Prices, well, they're holding their own, which is always a topic of conversation down at the coffee shops.

* Inventory remains a bit tight, meaning if you're looking to buy, you best be ready to move quick.

It's a reminder that even when the official channels are quiet, the pulse of the city keeps beating. The wind whispers through the coulees, carrying news of its own.

Good morning from the coulees — the wind's up, the sky's wide, and Lethbridge has something to say.
