Growth in population aged 18 to 34 – the group with the highest propensity to rent, or “Echo Boomers” – is resuming after two decades of decline. The echo boomer population is projected to peak in 2020 and will be equal in size to the Baby Boom (~80 million).
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, U.S. household formations averaged 1.35 million from 2000 to 2006. During the “great recession” (2007 to 2011) household formations averaged 550,000. This suggests potential pent up demand of 4 million new households.
More stringent mortgage underwriting, increased student debt and the recent memory of a collapsed housing market has increased the Echo Boomer’s propensity to rent. In the U.S., every 1% decline in home ownership is equal to approximately 1.1 million new renter households.(6)
