Downtown DC: Key Facts and Trends (May 2023)

Check out this downtown key facts and trends snapshot to learn why downtown matters, how it is in transition, and what we are doing about it.

ObviouslyDC

Washington, DC is a resilient city that pivots and grows in the face of challenges. We will continue to be the best city in the world to do business, bring big ideas to life, and set the standard for inclusive prosperity.

DC's Comeback Plan

Every five years, the District of Columbia updates its economic development strategy. The strategy is a tool for identifying challenges and opportunities, setting goals and priorities, guiding action and investments, and aligning stakeholders to achieve a shared vision.
