A small private plane crashed near Provincetown on Cape Cod, catching fire and killing the sole pilot onboard. Emergency responders extinguished the fire, and the NTSB is investigating the cause of the crash.
Provincetown, Massachusetts, has one of the most harrowing housing markets in New England due to limited stock, enormous summertime demand, and heavy reliance on seasonal workers. Dan McKeon, an unofficial "housing matchmaker," helps renters find housing and urges homeowners to open unused rooms to newcomers. The median sales price of a single-family home in Provincetown was $1.9 million last month, and apartment vacancies are essentially nonexistent. Local leaders are stepping up efforts to address the housing crisis, but many are still struggling to find affordable housing.
