Coworking — which has consistently been on the rise and significantly fueled by the increase in remote and hybrid work — continues its upward trajectory across the U.S. And, with more flexible workspaces opening their doors every day and new operators entering the market, the changes in this industry are notable, even in the span of just a few months.

So, to better understand the current state of the coworking industry in the U.S., we leveraged proprietary data from the previous quarter to break down the coworking landscape in the 25 largest markets. We also compared the most recent numbers to those registered in the first quarter of 2023 to determine the evolution of coworking throughout the nation.

This was a 10% increase in the span of a quarter — given that the national inventory stood at 5,612 in March.
