99 residential properties sold in Somerville in June with a median sales price of $390,000. That’s an increase of more than 50% over last year’s sales in June when just 65 homes sold. It seems that Somerville real estate buyers took advantage of the home buyer credit. It will be interesting to see if sales in the next few months lag behind last year’s numbers since some have suggested that the credit simply pushed sales into the earlier part of the year.

Asian Longhorned Beetle Presentation
Asian Longhorned Beetle Presentation All of the downed trees from Sunday’s wild storm remind me of how important urban trees are to our daily happiness.
It seems that the enemies of trees are growing in number – foes of longstanding like lightning and wind are joined by homeowners who don’t like to pick up branches or are afraid of the trees in their yard. I cringe when I hear the sound of a saw in the neighborhood – fearing that another tree is about to be felled.
Add the Asian Longhorned Beetle to the list of things we tree huggers have to worry about.
On Wednesday night the Somerville Garden Club is sponsoring a presentation by horticulturist Debra Elson on the Asian Longhorned Beetle and other pests that damage or kill trees.
A video, “Lurking In the Trees”, about the devastation the beetle caused in Worcester will be shown. Elson will also discuss the Hemlock Wooly Adelgid, Winter Moth, Eastern Tent Caterpillar, and Gypsy Moth Caterpillar.
The Somerville Garden Club meeting and Asian Longhorned Beetle presentation is scheduled for
Wednesday, June 9, 2010 at 7 pm
At the Tufts Administration Building, 167 Holland St, Somerville (between Davis Square & Teele Square) on the 2nd floor
