- Abstract:
- Key Takeaways. (1) Forty-two percent U.S. workers are now working from home full time, accounting for more than two-thirds of economic activity. (2) Policymakers should ensure that broadband service is expanded to ensure more workers can do their jobs away from a traditional office. (3) As companies consider relocating from densely populated urban centers in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, cities may suffer while suburbs and rural areas benefit. (4) Working from home is here to stay, but post-pandemic will be optimal at about two days a week.
