Miami is emerging as a frontrunner among major cities in the process of returning to in-person office work, as indicated by a recent report from Placer.ai.

In February, Miami and New York City demonstrated notable trends in the post-COVID return-to-office landscape. In Miami, in-person office visits were down by 9.4% compared to February 2020, while New York City experienced a slightly larger decline of 14.5%.

In New York and Miami, offices drew just 22.5% and 21.9% fewer visits, respectively, in 2023 than in 2019—meaning that they recovered nearly 80.0% of their pre-COVID foot traffic.
