The Metroplex had an office return rate of 62.4 percent in July 2024, slightly above the U.S. average of 61.9 percent, indicating a robust recovery.
In DFW's close-in suburbs, where short commutes can be made to downtown areas via public transportation, average return rates were nearly 84 percent.
Walter Bialas attributes the disparities in return rates to longer commutes from far-flung suburbs, stating that shorter commutes encourage higher office attendance.
Bialas predicts that while the return to office will continue, the pace of recovery will be gradual despite the resilience shown in the region.
