Single women own about 2.64 million more homes than single men in the 50 states. Single women own about 10.76 million homes, while single men own about 8.12 million.

Louisiana has the highest share of homes owned by single women. 15.16% of Louisiana owner-occupied households are owned by single women — more than 2 percentage points higher than the 50-state average.

North Dakota and South Dakota (no surprise) are the only states where single men own a higher share of homes than single women

And while women generally earn less than men, that isn’t always the case — especially among younger generations, according to the Pew Research Center.

In fact, women younger than 30 earn at least as much as men younger than 30 in 22 U.S. metros, including New York, Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles. In another 107 metros, women younger than 30 earn 90% to 99% of what men younger than 30 do.

Probably because they used to be married women.

"I own my own house so I don't need yours"
"My three children come first. If you have a problem with it, do me a favor and swipe left."
"I am a phlebotomist and hair stylist".

Yeah, but who is paying for more single occupied homes?

Females are about to pass up dudes in almost every category.

They take pride in being what they are, modern men seem to loathe masculinity.

Because we're too busy giving our money to single women.

A normal human being would look at this data a think that maybe the narrative of women being oppressed in this country is bullshite, but these retarded lefties will tell us that this is more clear evidence of their oppression.

The % of women who bear the sole responsibility of mortgage payments has increased dramatically in the past two decades. Why is no one talking about this?? How can we expect to reach gender parity and equity if these strong ladies have to burden the costs of ownership by themselves???

Single men are likely to be attempting to stay flexible with regards to living.

Why buy a house if you don’t need it? Makes it that much more a pain in the arse if you have to relocate for work or marriage.

When higher education inevitably becomes 65%+ women, I wonder if we'll start seeing a push to get more males in college

All divorce jokes aside, I’d imagine most single guys under 30 appreciate the mobility of not owning an expensive house a lot more than women under 30.

Newly single women or “working through college” single women?

The man is probably paying for hers and can’t afford one his self. I’m an independent strong woman. Most men can’t handle me.

This is perfectly reflected in how divorces typically occur. Man gets kicked out on his arse, woman keeps the house and the kids.

The feminist movement has nothing to do with equality or any of that nonsense, it's simply being used to coerce women into delaying families and having fewer/no children for the climate change nuts.

Every study ever has shown educated career women are most likely to be single, never married, and childless. They'd have universities be 100% female if that guaranteed the population moves in the direction climate activists desire.

Because it’s way better for building wealth than just paying some landlord $1500 a month and not building equity

Women are more miserable than ever. That pride is a fiction. Finding a female who isn't a tradwife and is genuinely content with her life is nearly impossible.
