– Millennials Are Slowest Generation To Hit 50% Homeownership; Rest Of Generation Fears Forever Renters:
The millennial generation has finally reached a critical milestone of more than half owning their homes, according to a new report by the real estate site Apartment List, citing the latest data from the Census Bureau. Compared with other generations, millennials have reached the 50% mark slower than previous generations.
“For a generation whose identity has been shaped by a tumultuous relationship with the housing market, homeownership has been a lofty goal, growing exceedingly expensive and competitive compared to when their parents were coming of age,” Apartment List said. The current millennial homeownership rate is 51.5%, while all other generations are between 69% and 78%.
