From March to September 2025, Center City District partnered with apartment managers and landlords across more than two dozen buildings from Callowhill Street to Locust Street to survey their residents. CCD received and analyzed 682 completed responses from buildings containing 4,600 units.
More than 14,500 units have been built across Greater Center City since 2019. Just within core Center City (Vine to Pine streets between the two rivers), nearly 3,500 apartment units have come online since 2023. A question we hear constantly is, “So who’s living in them?” This report summarizes our findings.
