Since the last analysis was published in 2021, Philadelphia has continued to recover from the height of the COVID-19 pandemic and adapt to its lasting presence. March 2022 marked 2 years since the virus caused widespread shutdowns, and in those 24 months people, businesses, and governments saw more change than ever before. Now, firmly in 2022, more employers are calling for their employees to return to downtown offices and public schools have reopened and removed pandemic-era restrictions, like masking and social distancing. A vaccine for children under 5 was finally made available in the summer of 2022, soon after the period captured in this report. More concrete data has emerged on how the childcare industry has adapted to everchanging circumstances. This year’s analysis points to improving conditions across the board. Growth of childcare supply exceeded expectations, acutely observed with the unprecedented expansion of high-quality supply which saw more new high-quality providers participate in the market than ever before. Demand, while still changing along with workplace commuting patterns and new hybrid workplace arrangements, has maintained trends observed in previous analyses. (author abstract)
