      I believe this illustrates the same phenomenon as you see in those constantly-reposted maps showing „% of young adults (25-34) living with parents“. If young adults leave home early, they are more likely to live alone compared to other age groups, so % of people living alone goes up.

      So just like those maps, I believe it’s mainly about economic conditions:

      * salaries of new workers vs. housing costs (e.g., can a starting school teacher afford a home, if they live alone)
      * subsidized housing or economic support for students, allowing them to live alone

      So overall, I guess it’s a good thing to have this number high.

      I’ve heard Italian men live with their mothers like forever.
      They’re not on the chart at all, so it must be true

      I don’t think there is any positive side to it lol I mean you can try to spin it, hell yeah we are more independent but the reality is that a lot of people are just alone and lonely :/

    4. Divorce rates are also pretty high in the +35 age groups, this means children tend to have two homes, but on paper it may look like the other parent lives alone.

      I don’t know what’s the ratio of ages who live alone, but I’m pretty sure there’s high numbers with the elderly who are widowed. And I’ve read numerous articles about how lonely many elderly people are. So at least in this regard it’s a negative phenomenon. And probably not by choice in many cases.
