1806.1 Based on land availability, recent development activity, planning policies, and regional growth trends, significant growth is expected during the next 20 years. The Planning Area is expected to grow from about 26,616 households in 2015 to 36,774 households in 2045, an increase of about 38 percent. By 2045, the area is expected to have a population of almost 112,477. While this is still fewer residents than the area had during the peak years of the 1950s, it marks a major turnaround after five decades of population decline. The projections assume that vacant and abandoned housing units in the Planning Area will be refurbished or replaced, and that new units will be developed on vacant and underused sites.

1806.2 A period of sustained growth in the Planning Area has already started. From 2006 to the present, an astonishing 8,000 units of housing have been constructed or rehabilitated, including more than 1,000 new units in HOPE VI projects at the former Stanton Dwellings, Frederick Douglass Homes, and Valley Green public housing developments. Infill development is also expected along Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue SE, South Capitol Street SE, and on scattered vacant sites.

1806.3 In 2017, 23,996 jobs were in the Planning Area. Additional jobs are forecast in the Planning Area by 2045. Future job centers include St. Elizabeths, DC Village, and the Anacostia Metro station and Gateway areas.
