Parents Home – The COVID-19 pandemic has forced millions of young adults to move back in with their parents since the spring. The majority of 18-to-29-year-olds now live with their parents, surpassing the previous peak during the Great Depression, the Pew Research Center reports. In July, 52% of 18-to-29-year-olds lived with one or both of their parents, up from 47% in February, according to the analysis. That places the number of young adults living with their parents at 26.6 million. Increases were most pronounced among the youngest adults (18 to 24 years old) and for young white adults.
