Center City District (CCD) worked with apartment managers and landlords of more than two dozen apartment buildings between Locust and Callowhill streets to distribute a survey to their residents between March and September of 2025. CCD received and analyzed 682 completed surveys across buildings containing 4,600 units. 

More than 14,500 units built across Greater Center City since 2019. Just within core Center City (Pine to Vine 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.
