The roughly 60-page report details residents\u2019 economic importance and their demography, Loop housing supply, Loop housing affordability and five-year housing projections. To create the report, CLA conducted a survey of Loop residents in July 2022, and contracted research firm Goodman Williams Group to analyze and predict the current and future landscape of residential living in the Chicago Loop.

We hope the evidence and narrative of this study provides context for how we can all work together to make Chicago\u2019s Loop more beneficial for workers, tourists, and residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Report highlights include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Loop as the fastest growing downtown in the United States and fastest growing neighborhood in Chicago<\/li>\n<li>The Loop population continued to grow throughout the pandemic with an estimated total population of 46,400 in 2022 (a gain of more than 4,000 residents since the 2020 census)<\/li>\n<li>$481 million\u00a0in annual economic impact on Loop businesses by residents with an additional $940 million per year in retail gap for retail and service options in the Loop<\/li>\n<li>An average of $18,000 spent in the Loop per Loop household annually<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cThe Chicago Loop Alliance study clearly reveals the importance of residents to the economic health of the Loop,\u201d said Michael Mini, Executive Vice President of Chicagoland Apartment Association. \u201cThe millions of dollars in disposable income are a key driver of the Loop economy, supporting retail, food and beverage, arts and culture, and visitor attractions. The current residential economy is vital to the success of the Loop, but the study reveals there continues to be more opportunity for new businesses to take advantage of nurturing and maintaining residential spending within the Loop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sobre la Chicago Loop Alliance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/loopchicago.com\/es\/\">Chicago Loop Alliance<\/a> La misi\u00f3n de CLA es crear, gestionar y promover programas positivos e inclusivos que atraigan a la gente al Loop y aceleren la recuperaci\u00f3n econ\u00f3mica.
