新冠疫情爆发后的第一年,在意识到自己可以搬到房租更低的地点生活、工作后,成千上万的美国人选择“逃离城市”。

两年后,远程办公依然风行,美国人迁出城市中心的脚步也没有停止。

新冠疫情期间,诸多沿海都市都出现了人口大规模流出的现象。美国人口普查局(U.S. Census Bureau)的数据显示,2020年至2021年,洛杉矶的迁出人口最多,约为17.9万。同一时期,纽约也流失了约11.3万居民。根据布鲁金斯学会(Brookings Institute)的数据,旧金山的人口年增长率为-6.3%。

许多美国民众选择离开城市,前往更为偏远的郊区居住。在Realtor.com的研究人员看来,这是一种“疫情引发的趋势”。实际上,由于前往郊区租房的租客依然络绎不绝,郊区与市区的房租差距已经不相上下。

房产中介网站Realtor.com在8月24日发布的报告显示,过去三年,郊区相比市区的房租 “优势”缩小了52.9%。

该报告显示,2019年,郊区租金平均为1,404美元,而市区租金平均为1,579美元,相差12.4%。目前,郊区租金平均为1,821美元,市区租金平均为1,928美元,二者仅仅相差5.8%。

2021年1月,在新冠疫情最为严重的时侯,市区租金同比下降了2.5%,而郊区租金同比上涨了3.9%。

而且几乎所有人的房租都在上涨。报告显示,今年7月,美国所有房产的租金中位数价格连续第17个月上涨,目前已经达到1,879美元。

Realtor.com的首席经济学家丹尼尔·黑尔在该报告中说:“无论是在市中心还是郊区,无论是留在原地还是搬往他处,高昂的租金都令租客头疼不已,可以说是进退维谷。”

然而,有迹象显示,租金趋势正在向2020年之前的状态回归。今年7月,市区租金的同比增长中位数要高于郊区,这一数据表明,在经历人口外流之后,市区对居民的吸引力正在逐渐回升。市区租金增幅为12.8%,而郊区租金增幅为11.7%。

不过这份报告并不说明郊区租金会很快出现回落。

黑尔说:“市区租金偏低的日子快结束了,随着越来越多的人开始重返办公室上班、回归城市生活,市区租金的增速将会超过郊区。”

“简单地说,如今在哪租房都不便宜。”(财富中文网)

Thousands of people left American cities in the first year of the pandemic when they realized they could live and work someplace cheaper.

With remote work still going strong two years later, the migration out of urban centers hasn’t stopped.

Major coastal cities lost a major chunk of their residents during the pandemic. Los Angeles experienced the most outward migration, with around 179,000 residents leaving between 2020 and 2021, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. New York lost about 113,000 residents to migration over the same time period. And San Francisco’s annual growth rate was -6.3%, according to the Brookings Institute.

Many people left the city for more suburban digs, something that researchers at Realtor.com called a “pandemic induced trend.” And so many people are continuing to rent in suburban areas, in fact, that it’s hardly less expensive to live in them anymore.

In the last three years, the “advantage” of renting in the suburbs over a city has decreased 52.9%, according to a report released on August 24 by real estate listing site Realtor.com.

In 2019, renters could find a place to live in the suburbs for an average $1,404, according to the report. At the same time, the average city rent was $1,579—a difference of 12.4%. The average suburban rent is now $1,821, while the average rent price in a city is $1,928. That’s a difference of just 5.8%.

City rent prices declined 2.5% year-over-year during the height of the pandemic in January 2021, while suburban rent prices increased 3.9%.

And rent overall is going up for almost everyone. In July of this year, the median rental price in the U.S. for all properties increased for the 17th consecutive month, according to the report. That number now sits at $1,879.

“Whether in a downtown area or suburb, staying put or making a change, renters are stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to affordability,” said Realtor.com chief economist Danielle Hale in the report.

However, there is evidence that rental trends are beginning to return to what they were before 2020. In July, median rent growth grew more year-over-year for urban areas than for suburbs, signaling the renewed strength of cities to attract residents after the exodus. In urban areas, rent growth was up 12.8%, compared to 11.7% for suburban areas.

The report does not imply that renting in the suburbs is going to become more affordable any time soon, however.

“The days of smaller premiums for downtown rentals are numbered, as a return to in-office work and city life is sparking a relative uptick in urban rent growth,” said Hale.

“Put simply, renters are feeling it everywhere.”
