Topic Summary: The pandemic brought about profound demographic changes as families took advantage of remote work opportunities and cheaper housing outside of major cities. In this session, the presentation will provide a detailed view of migration patterns to date and expectations for the coming years, with a focus on the ramifications for construction patterns in urban, suburban, and rural areas. Workforce challenges will also be explored, including insights on which regions are best-equipped to meet heightened demand for construction workers.
