[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a millennial and so are most of my friends. The people I know are mostly in apartments, condos, and townhouses. I know one person in a larger house.[/quote]

This is just the people you know. Around 90% of homeowners live in single family detached homes. [/quote]

Not accurate for DC and its close suburbs, which is where we all (people on this forum) live.[/quote] Well if you are too snobby to live in Woodbridge or Takoma Park, that is your problem. There are plenty of affordable single family homes in the DC metro area. Not everyone can live in Kalorama. [/quote]

I'm the original poster in this chain and I'm in Silver Spring. The people I know again, are mostly living in places like townhouses. The ones in SFHs are in the kind you're talking about, smaller and older. That's fine, I'm just pushing back on the assumption that people are looking for something fancy. You're doing the same thing by jumping in to assume people are trying to live in Kalorama. That's not my experience.

And, barely over half of millennials are home owners in the first place, so national statistics about all home owners as a group are irrelevant. [/quote]
