📰 News we're reading

• Market & Moments: The Burlington, Mass., Summer Sales Report (burlington.buzz) — Burlington's summer housing market saw fewer sales but steady prices, with 34 single-family homes selling at a median of $862,500, nearly matching 2025. Rising interest rates are starting to cool buyer activity, making smart pricing crucial for fall sellers and potentially opening opportunities for patient buyers. A seasonal heating-system check is also recommended before colder weather hits.
   

• Where to eat with kids: fall frenzy edition (bostonglobe.com) — Families in Burlington have a couple of new, budget-friendly options for eating out with kids, including a ramen spot off Route 95 and a lively Mexican restaurant at Burlington Mall. Both emphasize fast, cheerful service, generous portions, and menus that balance adventurous dishes with kid-pleasing favorites, making them handy choices before or after errands or mall trips.
   

• India Association of Greater Boston Reports Expanded Programs, State Recognition (southasianherald.com) — Burlington played a central role in the India Association of Greater Boston's busy year, hosting a Republic Day celebration at Burlington High School that drew more than 2,500 people. The group also donated over 3,000 pounds of food to the Burlington Food Pantry and expanded cultural, sports, and senior programs across the region, while earning new state-level recognition.
