Summary · why it matters

A record 25.2 million adults under 35 lived with their parents in 2025, surpassing the pandemic peak, according to a new Realtor.com report. The 33.0% co-residence rate is just below the 2020 all-time high of 33.6%, and the absolute count has now exceeded it. Had early-2000s patterns held, 4.86 million fewer young adults would be living at home today, but a national median home listing price of $430,000 and median asking rent of $1,673 have made independent living financially out of reach. Among those aged 25 to 34, approximately 70% are employed, and about 1 in 3 aged 25 to 29 holds a four-year degree, pointing to housing affordability rather than labor market weakness as the key driver. The United States faces a deficit of approximately 4 million homes, and the typical first-time buyer is now 40, reflecting a generation of latent demand that the market has not absorbed.
