Covington sees steady return of employees to offices post-pandemic

During the initial phase of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, many workplaces adopted remote work strategies to safeguard employees from a virus that was not well understood at the time. Over the subsequent years, this approach remained prevalent. However, in Covington, there has been a gradual increase in the number of employees returning to their workplaces, although these numbers have not yet reached pre-pandemic levels.

The data referenced originates from Placer.ai software, which tracks daily foot traffic averages tied to "work locations" across the city, including downtown areas. The software aggregates information from numerous partner mobile applications that collect data from mobile devices. It uses this data along with algorithms to distinguish between "work location visits" and other types of visits such as residential or leisure activities.
