In 2016, 13.5% of those between 30-34 lived with their parents, and it's been rising.

Also in 2011, 73% of 25-29 year olds have never been married where in 1981 it was 26%. I mean, how can you marry when you can't even get a place of your own? How will people even seriously think about having kids if having a home of their own becomes more and more of a pipe dream?

Why do you think we have a retirement home crisis already? Lack of funding is only a part of the problem.
