Get ready to celebrate Unmarried and Single Americans Week, from Sunday Sept. 20-26, in the United States. It started in Ohio in the 1980s to celebrate single life and recognize singles and their contributions to society. Here is data from the US Census:
107 million or 45% of Americans 18 years old and older
…are single or unmarried (unmarried people include those who were never married, widowed or divorced.)
The majority are women, as you can see:
53% women
47% men
…and 34 million of unmarried and single Americans live alone.
Isn’t that something?
