Picture
Coworking spaces are slowly popping up everywhere, and they are making a big splash in all industries. They are a great choice for startups or companies that require a space that costs minimum but will allow for maximum productivity.
There is an estimate of 33,000 flexible coworking spaces on the planet as of 2019, with around 3 million people working in such spaces across the globe. The United States leads in the square footage of coworking space it has, while the Asian Pacific has the largest number of coworking spaces (an estimated 11,000).
The demographics of those working in such spaces keep changing, and different, unique trends are seen every year in the various types of people who work in coworking spaces. The following are the different demographics of those who work in coworking spaces:
Professions
Freelancers take up the highest percentage of professions working out of coworking space in the world. Those who work in the IT, PR, and sales industries have recently started taking up more coworking space, and it is estimated that the three are occupying an equal amount of coworking space.
Age
With coworking spaces getting older, so are the workers working within them. It has been estimated that the average age of those in coworking spaces is at around 36 years. The age bracket of 30 to 39 years has been found to be the largest group working in coworking spaces, according to the 2017 Global Coworking Survey. The smallest group is of those aged 50 and over.
Gender
Several surveys have found a great increase in the number of women working in coworking spaces. This has been seen as a highly positive change from such spaces previously being male-dominated. The number of women is consistently increasing for each profession, but it is still the lowest when it comes to employees in a corporation.
Education
Several surveys have also found an increase in the education of those working in coworking spaces. A large chunk of this population has either a bachelor’s or a master’s degree. This trend is ever-increasing, and even individuals with doctorates are beginning to find a home in coworking spaces.
Relationship Status
According to the 2017 Global Coworking Survey, members of coworking spaces are practically evenly spread across the board when it comes to their relationship statuses. This means that an almost equal percentage of them are single, in a relationship, or married.
Number of Children
The same survey reported that an overwhelming majority of those working in such spaces have no children. So, the coworking spaces with childcare might not be the best idea. 
Conclusion
With the ever-changing scene the future of work, it is important to understand how the dynamic of such spaces is affected by the demographics in coworking spaces. This change will also show a trend, which can be used to determine what the atmosphere of coworking spaces will be like in the future.
