## Resource

Young adults are staying at home in record numbers—not because they can’t work, but because housing is unaffordable. Over 25 million Americans under 35 live with parents, up six percentage points since the 2000s. With median home prices soaring 34% since 2019 and rents climbing, even employed grads are stuck. Student debt and economic downturns like the pandemic have only deepened the crisis, delaying independence and stifling new household formation.
