Rental market site Zumper recently released their Annual Renter Survey where they report that over one third of Americans are renters – the highest percentage over 50 years! Zumper surveyed 14,284 people from every U.S. state and D.C. This is the 2nd edition of their annual survey where they hope to better understand the characteristics, perspectives and behaviors of renters in the United States.
Some takeaways:
- Over 100 million Americans are renters
- One in three do not believe the American Dream includes home ownership
- One in five have no plans to ever buy a home
- Nearly half revealed they are not saving any money out of their income for a down payment
“Because renting has such a high impact on Americans’ wallets and day-to-day lives, Zumper conducts an annual survey to better understand the characteristics, perspectives and behaviors of renters in the United States.”
