Almost half of Americans between the ages of 18 and 29 still live at home with their families
Moving out of the family home isn’t a decision to be taken lightly. There’s lots to consider, especially when it comes to finances. With the cost of living and rent on the increase, it’s not much of a surprise that many young Americans aren’t falling over their feet to get their own place.
In fact, the number of young people still in the family nest is higher than it’s been for decades. Roughly 45% of people ages 18-29 are living at home with their families, according to Harris Poll for Bloomberg. It’s highest figure since the 1940s.
Meanwhile, iMoving.com reports that the average age people choose to move out of their parent’s home is between 24 and 27. It’s often around the time they’ve completed college or other secondary studies, found a job. For some, it’s when they get married, or are in a long-term relationship with a serious partner.
For some, like the 18-year-old who overheard her parents talking, moving out is a snap decision. But many people plan before they walk out of the family home. iMoving cautions that it’s important to be totally ready before taking the big step.
