Home tenure for 2023 is defined as the number of years between the most recent sale date of a home and December 1, 2023. Data on homeowner tenure by generation\u00a0 is from a Redfin analysis of the U.S. Census Bureau\u2019s 1-year American Community Survey in 2022, the most recent year for which the data is available.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Baby boomers are aging in place, driving homeowner tenure up<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Older Americans staying in their homes is the driving force behind longer homeowner tenure. Nearly 40% of baby boomers have lived in their home for at least 20 years, and another 16% have lived in their home for 10-19 years. For Gen Xers, more than one-third (35%) have lived in the same home for at least 10 years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Millennials typically stay in homes for shorter periods, largely because they\u2019re younger and partly because they <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gallup.com\/workplace\/231587\/millennials-job-hopping-generation.aspx\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">switch jobs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> more than older generations. Less than 7% of millennials have lived in their home for 10 years or longer, 13% have lived in their home for 5-9 years, and 30% have lived in their home for less than five years. Nearly all Gen Zers who own a home have had it for less than five years, which stands to reason because the oldest Gen Zer was 26 in 2023.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-77488 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tenure-generation-chart.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"616\" height=\"412\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tenure-generation-chart.png 616w, https:\/\/www.redfin.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/tenure-generation-chart-300x201.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 616px) 100vw, 616px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The time periods for each generation noted in the chart above don\u2019t add up to 100%.

One, the American population is aging: Roughly <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.census.gov\/library\/stories\/2023\/05\/2020-census-united-states-older-population-grew.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">17%<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of people in the U.S. were 65 and older as of 2020, up from 13% in 2010.
