Warsaw economic and labor market trends

Overview

Warsaw is experiencing significant economic strength characterized by high employment and a tightening commercial real estate market.

Labor market data indicates an employment rate for residents aged 20-64 of nearly 87%, which exceeds the European Union average by more than 10 percentage points. The city maintains a low youth unemployment rate of 7.5% and high professional activity among university graduates.

This economic activity has extended to the office sector, where tenant demand is rising alongside record low supply. Lease transaction volumes increased by 22% year-on-year in the first three quarters of 2026, driving the vacancy rate down to 7.9%, a six-year low. While new supply has been critically limited in 2026, several modern office projects are planned for 2027–2028, particularly near Rondo Daszyńskiego.
