Deep dives
Demand growth in large city urban areas remains slow due to the dependence on international travelers
Large city urban areas, such as Miami, Boston, San Francisco, and Oahu, are experiencing slower demand growth compared to other markets. These areas heavily rely on international travelers, and the strength of the dollar is still affecting their visitation rates. While international travel is bouncing back in general, it is mostly intra-European travel rather than travelers coming to the U.S. This has led to a decline in occupancy rates, particularly in established tourist markets.
