From the Times:
Based on demographics and previous trends in household formation, it looks as if the country still has about 1.8 million fewer households today than it would have in a more “normal” economy, and most of that total household deficit is accounted for by the lower numbers of households formed by those in the 15-34 age group. Demographics suggest that there should be about 1.1 million more households headed by younger Americans today than there actually are.
According to a previous study conducted by Ohio State University and reported by Bloomberg, about 25 percent of adults between ages 18 and 30 live with their parents.
