Texas Marriage and Divorce Records analyzed Census data and Pew Research to explore how single adults have shifted their mindset toward marriage. That's according to a report by the Pew Research Center , which analyzed Census Bureau data to reveal that a record-high share of Americans over 40 have never been married.
One in 4 year-olds had never tied the knot as of , up from 1 in 5 in Forty-year-olds holding a bachelor's degree or higher were more likely to be married than those without a four-year college degree, the report found, and men were more likely to have never said "I do" than women. This high marks a decades-long slide in marriage rates, coinciding with evolving social norms and drastic economic shifts.
Since the early s, as cohabitation started to become more socially acceptable, ideas about the necessity, importance, and timing of marriageโat least among some segments of the populationโhave dramatically changed. In part, experts point to economic factors for the delay and decline in marriage rates. Women's economic gains in the workforce have made them less financially reliant on a wage-earning spouse. The rising costs of raising a child, coupled with declining birth rates, have also driven down marriage rates.
Harder to measure, however, is the impact of shifting attitudes on purpose and fulfillment on marriage.
While 7 in 10 Americans say marriage is important for a fulfilling life, just over half say that while it's important, it's not essential for both men and women, according to Pew Research. Broader recognition that marriage does not "complete" a person has made it a "nice to have"โfor someโrather than the ultimate goal. Bella DePaulo, a social scientist and "leading researcher of singlehood" told The Atlantic in that her "most authentic life" is while being single: "And single for me in the most single sense possibleโI live alone, I don't date, I happily don't date, and that's the life that works best for me," she added.
