Mobile popsicle cart vendor King of Pops announced it will be setting up shop as a franchised vendor in the Cypress community on March 11.

The details: Franchise owner Anne Peavler said she liked the King of Pops colorful popsicle cart idea as a way of creating a "community centered experience."

“Popsicles bring people together,” said Peavler. “Whether you're coming from a soccer game, a bike ride, or just driving by, I wanted to create a spot where families and friends can stop for a quick treat and leave with a smile.”

On the menu: According to the company website, the location will offer a variety of popsicles in flavors such as strawberry lemonade, mango tangerine and cookies & cream. King of Pops also offers reservations for private events, festivals and school events, per the business.

More moderate prices have led to an influx of homes hitting the market, according to the Houston Association of Realtors' February 2026 housing market update. While there was a slight decrease in home sales, buyer activity has increased across the region.

The gist: According to HAR, property sales of all types compared to February last year have dwindled by 3.3%, with 7,024 properties sold. Despite this, the number of properties listed has risen by 14.3%, with 55,710 properties now available. 

According to HAR Chief Economist Ted C. Jones, the Houston housing market has been “bottoming out” for the past several years and is now returning to pre-pandemic levels.

As it stands right now, the median price declined 0.9% year over year in February to $322,078. Homes have also been spending more time on the market this February compared to last February—the average days spent on the market for a home went from 60 to 69 days, which is the highest it’s been since March 2013, when the average time was 74 days.
