Comparing office occupancy changes across US metros

Combining the change in leased space with the rise in sublease availability gives a more complete picture of the change in demand across office metros since the onset of the pandemic. This gives a more intuitive match between demand patterns and rental trends that we have seen so far. This Update forms part of a set of publications that extend our existing office and apartment market analysis beyond the six major metros that we currently forecast. Over the coming weeks, we will be expanding our coverage to include an additional 11 US metros in our regular quarterly analysis and forecasts. That will include the release of a new metro focused Chart Book and enlarged office and apartment metro Outlooks.
