HOW WE GOT HERE, HOW WE ADDRESS IT AND THE DEMOGRAPHIC SHIFTS THAT WILL IMPACT WHAT AND WHERE WE CALL HOME
Multiple surveys show roughly half the nation would opt to move to a walkable community — where they could walk to most of their daily needs — even if it meant they would live in an attached dwelling such as a townhouse, condo or apartment.
However, the impact of the pandemic plus trends towards millennials starting families and settling down as they age, indicate a shift in the opposite direction for some.
Results from NAR’s Coronavirus Update to the 2020 Community and Transportation Preferences Survey show younger respondents — especially those with children at home — reported a reduced need to be near highways and public transit or to have a home with a short commute to work.
Results, released after surveying at the height of COVID
in 2020, indicated an increased desire for more outdoor space and larger homes,
most particularly among millennials and those with kids at home.
