Which U.S. markets are seeing the greatest surge in healthcare and lab employee foot traffic?

The Baltimore/Washington, D.C. life science market, particularly the I-81 Corridor, witnessed a remarkable surge in employee foot traffic across key life science facilities over the last 12 months, with an impressive increase of almost 50% since June 2023.
Apart from Boston and Seattle, which both saw notable decreases in healthcare and life science busyness over the last year, most life science markets are within a 10% margin of employee visitation compared to last June.
Overall, lab and healthcare buildings across the U.S. are only up 2% in employee visitation compared to this time last year after seeing a notable uptick in activity during the pandemic.
