Opis

Young adults in the United States have the highest rate of migration compared with other age groups. The most common reasons for moving among all ages are job, housing, or family related.1 Many of these moves are made between the ages of 18 to 34, an age group marked by various life course transitions associated with moving.2 These include getting a job, going to college, getting married, or having children. Generally, when economic conditions are good, the rate of migration is relatively stable, regardless of age.3 However, spurred by a credit and housing crisis, the Great Recession, which lasted from about 2007-2009, was followed by a large increase in unemployment in the United States. Accordingly, migration in the United States slowed.4,5 Young adults may have foregone many of the life course transitions associated with moving because of fewer employment opportunities, delayed family formation, or the inability to buy a home.
