According to a 2018 report on the office real estate uses in the Greater Los Angeles area, there are approximately 3 million square feet of space devoted to coworking. This makes the LA coworking market the second largest in the nation, after Manhattan. The importance of coworking goes beyond the market's size, as Los Angeles has a coworking culture that reflects the city's willingness to adopt innovation and set new trends.
