About 1.8 million men and 1.1 million women up until the age of 30 still
live at their family home because they either never left of they had to or
wanted to move back in. These numbers have sky rocketed because people did not move
out. Reasons are high costs, traditional family values and, especially men, do
not want to settle down. A large factor in people still living at their parents
is that owning a home is almost unaffordable to most people these days, the
housing crisis and not enough fairly priced houses are causing difficulty in
obtaining a suitable house for young people.
The housing crisis and the lack of suitable houses for people up to 30 years of
age cause the economy to be brought to a halt. Building affordable houses for
younger people is much better for the economy because young people invest in their
future and in the current economy when buying appliances, furniture, DIY
supplies etc.
It is amazing that they do not built enough houses for starters in the UK. To build more affordable houses also would decrease the number of unemployed contruction builders.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI think it's crazy that 3 million people round their 30's still live with their parents! I can imagine that they don't want to settle down but you can enjoy your live on your own! I believe it is a big part of your development as a person that you learn to live on your own!
