Seattle Ranks Fifth for WeWork Coworking Footprint
WeWork holds 10% of Seattle’s total coworking square footage, the fifth-highest WeWork share of major metros analyzed in a recent study by the company.
The study covers 20 U.S. metros, and more than 42,000 companies were tracked from 2023 through April 2026, drawing on WeWork membership and occupancy data combined with metro-level coworking supply figures. Seattle’s coworking market spans 149 locations and 3 million square feet, adding 10 locations year-over-year, a 7% increase. In addition to ranking among the top five markets, Seattle also ranks fifteenth globally.
WeWork’s six locations account for 290,000 square feet of the Seattle metro’s total coworking space. 1,484 startups have joined WeWork in Seattle since 2023, with 21% are still active, in line with the national average. Other coworking companies continue to debut spaces in Seattle. Kiln, a Utah-based coworking company, signed a lease for its first Washington location with plans to open it in Fremont later this year.
