Insights by Echo AI
New research shows a significant decline in traditional nuclear families across major U.S. cities. In some areas, fewer than 25% of households with children have married couples, compared to over 80% in suburbs. This trend is linked to lower life outcomes for children and is driven by factors including religiosity, not solely socioeconomic status.
