The number of older Americans living alone is on the rise. Nearly 16 million people aged 65 and older in the US lived solo in 2022, three times as many who lived alone in that age group in the 1960s. And as Baby Boomers age, that number is expected to grow even more, raising big questions about the country’s future.
Didn’t have this option? If you are in your 50s you were born in the 70s and you were married in the 90s. Did everyone forget time was a thing?
The stigma on divorce is significantly reduced now from what it was even like 20-30 years ago. It’s also easier for women to support themselves in general on top of being more normalized.
Also, boomers are more like 59-77 now. Did YOU forget time was a thing?

Talking about 50+ crowd. Get it together.
Sorry your argument is bad.
I was alive then. I guess you weren’t. Not surprising considering your immature reply. Have the life you deserve.
Try asking questions and gathering data instead of “guessing”. You might live longer. Have the life my tax dollars are paying for.

If you’re in your 50s you’re Gen X, not Baby Boomer. Millennials are 30s and early 40s now.
The youngest boomers are 59. But the whole concept of generation labeling is arbitrary and stupid.
