82 per cent of women aged 40 today are married or have been married. That's predicted to drop to between 69 to 77 per cent when the youngest Millennials reach 40. That's still a big majority. And most of that decline will be among poorer adults, as marriage is becoming an educated-class norm. Educated Millennials will still have high marriage rates by their mid-40s (over 75 per cent).
As Millennials Get Older, Many Are Buying SUVs To Drive To Their Suburban Homes
Quote:
Just a few years ago, many car dealers and homebuilders were worried that millennials would forever want to be urban hipsters, uninterested in buying cars or homes.
But now, as millennials get older — and richer — more of them are buying SUVs to drive to their suburban homes.
The National Association of Realtors' 2017 Home Buyer and Seller Generational Trends study found that millennials were the largest group of homebuyers for the fourth consecutive year.

More than a million Millennials are becoming moms each year
Quote:
While Millennials may be delaying parenthood, it’s not for lack of interest in eventually becoming moms and dads. Members of this generation rated being a good parent as a top priority in a 2010 Pew Research Center survey. Some 52% said it was one of the most important goals in their lives, well ahead of having a successful marriage, which 30% said was one of their most important lifetime goals.
Regardless of which generation they belong to, parents say having children is central to their identity. Among Millennials, six-in-ten (60%) said that being a parent is extremely important to their overall identity, according to a 2015 Pew Research Center survey. A similar share of Gen X parents said as much (58%), as did a slightly smaller share (51%) of Baby Boomers with children younger than 18.
