Downtown Fort Worth Residential Survey

May 12,2016


Downtown Fort Worth, Inc.'s 2014/2015 Residential Survey is now available on the Research page. 

As Downtown’s residential growth rate continues to accelerate, our understanding of who lives here and how Downtown serves them is important to developers, lenders, property owners, merchants, policy makers, Public Improvement District (PID) leaders and a host of others. This survey is performed every two years by the PID to track changes and provide an understanding of the growing Downtown population.

Within the pages of this report, you will find that Downtown residents:
 are highly educated – more than 85 % have a bachelor’s degree or higher
 earn high incomes – more than 89% earn more than $75,000 per year
 represent a significant buying force - $4 million+ per month
 believe that Downtown is safe or very safe - 97%
 commute less than 1 mile to work - 49%
 move here from a range or origins - 29% from Metroplex cities other than Fort Worth.

As we work to continually improve Downtown Fort Worth, the profile of Downtown residents
and their opinions of our center city shape our advocacy, recruiting, budgeting and work
programs.
