[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The number of DC residents is declining right now. Do we expect it to rebound now that so many people are able to work remotely? I watch as young people who grew up in the city are choosing to live in the suburbs for better schools and lower rates of crime.[/quote] Despite a declining population, the required number of housing units could still increase. Household size has been trending down for many reasons - that's why Washington DC has more housing units in 2022 (360,890) than in 1950 (229,738) despite a lower population (~689k vs ~802k). There are increasingly fewer and fewer multigenerational families living together, not to mention the fact that boarding houses and single occupancy rooms are no longer allowed.[/quote]
