Citation needed... I think they gotta be more than 20%.
- habnds 8y agoyeah pew research implies boomers are 72m/372m ~20% https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/03/01/millennials-overtake-baby-boomers/ https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/03/01/millennials...
- mr_tristan 8y agoAh, I may have incorrectly stated this - it's 30M or so boomer _homeowners_, which are less than 10% of the current US population. Still, less than 10% of the US population owns 40% of the homes.
- vonmoltke 8y agoSome number less than 100% of the current US population owns 100% of the homes, though, since tens of millions of people (due primarily to age or resources) do not own real estate. Thus, using a percentage of the total population this way, outside of that context, doesn't really mean much.
