Rising housing costs have led many young adults to delay moving out of their parents’ homes. According to the 2023 American Community Survey (ACS), 19.2% of adults aged 25 to 34 lived with a parent or parent-in-law in 2023—approximately 8.5 million people. Although down from a peak of 22% in 2017-2018, the share of young adults living with parents remains elevated compared to 2000, when fewer than 12% did so.

However, the optimal buying window varies across local markets. Some areas have already experienced peak buyer conditions, while others may not reach their ideal period until November or December.
