Entering your 20s I can say is like entering a whole new world — one that is ever-changing.  Apparently, I’m not the only one who thinks so nor the only person who thinks 20-somethings today have a different experience than generations past did. 

20-Somethings By Numbers:

• 33% move to a new residence every year
• 40% move back home with their parents at least once
• 7 jobs is the average amount held during this time period
• 66% spend at least some time living with a romantic partner without being married
• 28 is the median age for men to marry
• 26 is the median age for women to marry

From the New York Times article: “young men and women are more self-focused than at any other time of life, less certain about the future and yet also more optimistic, no matter what their economic background. This is where the ‘sense of possibilities’ comes in.”  I feel like this is truer today than ever — if that’s even possible.
