Default Boomerang generation

The numbers of young adults who are members of what has been dubbed the "boomerang generation" are staggering. In 2006, 43.5 per cent of adults aged 20 to 29 either stayed in the parental home or moved back into it after a period away.

"Young adults could remain or return home for reasons such as school attendance, financial difficulties, lack of job opportunities or the cost of living in a particular area," StatsCan said. "It could also be a response to a failed relationship, hardship in establishing an independent household, or a perceived benefits."
