　　Living with parents edges out other living arrangements for 18-to34-year-olds

　　A) Broad demographic (人口的)shifts is marital status， educational attainmentand employment have transformed the way young adults in the U.S. are living， anda new Pew Research Center analysis highlights the implications of these changesfor the most basic element of their lives—where they call home. In 2014，for thefirst time in more than 130 years， adults ages 18 to 34 were slightly morelikely to be living in their parents’ home than they were to be living with aspouse or partner in their own household.

　　B) This turn of events is fueled primarily by the dramatic drop in theshare of young Americans who are choosing to settle down romantically before age35. Dating back to 1880， the most common living arrangement among young adultshas been living with a romantic partner， whether a spouse or a significantother. This type of arrangement peaked around 1960， when 62% of the nation’s18-to 34-year-olds were living with a spouse or partner in their own household，and only one-in-five were living with their parents.

　　C) By 2014， 31.6% of young adults were living with a spouse or partner intheir own household， below the share living in the home of their parent(s)(32.1%). Some 14% of young adults lived alone， were a single parent or livedwith one or more roommates. The remaining 22% lived in the home of anotherfamily member (such as a grandparent， in-law or sibling (兄弟姐妹))， a non-relative，or in group quarters like college dormitories.

　　D) It’s worth noting that the overall share of young adults living withtheir parents was not at a record high in 2014. This arrangement peaked around1940， when about 35% of the nation’s 18-to 34-year-olds lived with mom and/ordad (compared with 32% in 2014). What has changed， instead， is the relativeshare adopting different ways of living in early adulthood， with the decline ofromantic coupling pushing living at home to the top of a much less uniform listof living arrangements.

　　E) Among young adults， living arrangements differ significantly by gender.For men ages 18 to 34， living at home with mom and/or dad has been the dominantliving arrangement since 2009， In 2014，28% of young men were living with aspouse of partner in their own home， while 35% were living in the home of theirparent(s). Young women， however，are still more likely to be living with a spouseof romantic partner(35%) than they are to be living with theirparent(s)(29%).

　　F) In 2014， more young women (16%) than young men (13%) were heading up ahousehold without a spouse or parther.This is mainly because women are morelikely than men to be sigle parents living with their children. For their part，young men (25%) are more likely than young women (19%) to be living in the homeof another family member， a non-relative or in some type of group quarters.

　　G) A variety of factors contribute to the long-run increase in the share ofyoung. Adults living with the parents. The first in the postponement of， if notretreat from， marriage. The average age of first marriage has risen steadily fordecades. In addition， a growing share of young adult may be avoiding marriagealtogether. A previous Pew Research Center analysis projected that as many asone-in-four of today’s young adult may never marry. While cohabitation(同居)hasbeen on the rise， the overall share of young adults either married or livingwith an unmarried patner has substantially fallen since 1990.

　　H) In addition， trends in both employment status and wages have likelycontributed to the growing share of young adults who are living in the home oftheir parent(s)， and this is especially true of young men. Employed young menare much less likely to live at home than young men without a job， andemployment among young men has fallen significantly in recent decades. The shareof young men with jobs peaked around 1960 at 84%. In 2014， only 71% of18-to-34-year-old men were employed. Similarly with earnings， young men’s wages(after adjusting for inflation) have been on a downward trajectory (轨迹) since1970 and fell significantly form 2000 to 2010. As wages have fallen ，the shareof young men living in the home of their parent(s) has risen.

　　I) Economic factors seem to explain less of why young adult women areincreasingly likely to live at home. Generally， young women have had growingsuccess in the paid labor market since 1960 and hence might increasingly beexpected to be a be to afford to afford to live independently of their parents.For women， delayed marriage—which is related， in part， to labor market outcomesfor men—may explain more of the increase in their living in the family home.

　　J) The Great Recession (and modest recovery) has also been associated withan increase in young adults living at home. Initially in the wake of therecession， college enrollments expanded， boosting the ranks of young adultsliving at home. And given the weak job opportunities facing young adults， livingat home was part of the private safety net help young adults to weather theeconomic storm.

　　K) Beyond gender， young adult’s living arrangements differ considerable byeducation—which is tied to financial means. For young adults without abachelor’s degree， as of 2008 living at home with their parents was moreprevalent than living with a romantic partner. By 2014， 36% of 18-to34-year-olds who had not completed a bachelor’s degree were living with theirparent(s) while 27% were living with a spouse or partner. Among collegegraduates， in 2014 46% were married or living with a partner， and only 19% wereliving with their parent(s). Young adults with a college degree have fared muchbetter in the labor market than their less-educated counterparts， which has inturn made it easier to establish their own households.

　　36.Unemployed young men are more likely to live with their parents than theemployed.

　　37.In 2014， the percentage of men aged 18 to 34 living with their parentswas greater than that of their female counterparts.

　　38.The percentage of young people who are married or live with a partnerhas greatly decreased in the past three decades or so.

While 53% believe men will continue to hold more topexecutive positions in business in the future， 44% say it’s only a matter oftime before as many women are in top executive positions as men.

　　The results reveal that while Swedes were the tallest people in the worldin 1914， Dutch men have risen from 12th place to claim top spot with an averageheight of 182.5cm. Larvian women. Meanwhile， rose from 28th place in 1914 tobecome the tallest in the world a century later， with an average height of169.8cm.

　　James Bentham， a co-author of the research from Imperial College， London，says the global trend is likely to be due primarily to improvements in nutritionand healthcare. “An individual’s genetics has a big influence on their height，but once you average over whole populations， genetics plays a less key role，” headded.

The nutritional andhealth crises that followed the policy of structural adjustment， he says， led tomany children and teenagers failing to reach their full potential in terms ofheight.

　　Bentham believe the global rtend of increasing height has importantimplications. “How tall we are now is strongly influenced by the environment wegrew up in，” he said. “If we give children the best possible start in life now，they will be healthier and more productive for decades to come.”
