Dual-income households were already the most common family structure by the 1980s. There hasn’t been an increase in total hours worked by married households since Boomers were in their 30s. We're a 4-income household because that's the minimum number of typical income earners needed to afford basic bills in a non-major metro market (major metro are more). Given that we don't seem to exist in this economic study, we're probably part of the >1 income household group. Of note, houses with 4-6+ cars in the driveway (that all leave every day) are common here. The houses aren't especially large.
