# Pattern 16 (en): Title Case in Headings — Success Case

This migration has reshaped demand for office space in city centers while driving up home prices in smaller metros and suburban areas. Economists are still debating whether the trend will persist or partially reverse as companies mandate return-to-office policies.

## Applied Pattern

- Pattern 16 (Title Case in Headings): Every content word in the heading is capitalized — "Impact", "Of", "Remote", "Work", "On", "Urban", "Development", "And", "Housing", "Markets" — when sentence case is the appropriate style.

## Judgment

**Success** — The fire condition is clearly met: ten words are capitalized beyond the first word, including prepositions and conjunctions ("Of", "On", "And") that would not even be capitalized under standard title-case rules. No word in the heading is a proper noun, brand name, or acronym, so every capitalization beyond the first word is purely an AI formatting artifact. The corrected version uses sentence case, matching modern style-guide conventions (AP, APA, Google developer docs) while preserving readability.
