About the State of Downtown Report
Downtown Austin is one the most dynamic urban cores in the world and an important anchor to our region.

The annual State of Downtown report is a market snapshot illustrating downtown's central role as Austin’s economic, governmental and cultural center. This report provides benchmark data behind Austin's most important economic sectors, including real estate development, office and employment statistics, residential analysis, tourism, safety, parks and placemaking, homelessness and mobility downtown while sharing our accomplishments &amp; priorities for the next few years.
