I thought millennials are lazy and don't have jobs?

You mean that housing prices are high in the area that have the highest demand? GTFO!

Prices are cheap as shit in (insert shitty small town name), why don't people want to move there?

Man, Chicago, there's a lot of value there. I think it's cheaper than Austin.  Maybe my favorite city.

 

Miami, lots of rich and poor folks, rent is pricey I think.  It's moving on up.

Chicago? Maybe. Never been to Chicago so I can't judge.

Miami? Fuck that.

But...BUT....let's remain "fair and balanced."  Millennials are now olds, the young whipper snapper Gen Zs are saturating middle America:

 

Most popular U.S. cities for Gen Z homebuyers:
1 Salt Lake City
2 Louisville
3 Oklahoma City
4 Cincinnati
5 Indianapolis
6 Phoenix
7 Minneapolis
8 Birmingham
9 St Louis
10 Virginia Beach

This is 500k in Indy:  https://www.redfin.com/IN/Indianapolis/7138-Birch-Leaf-Dr-46259/home/170063381

 

Similar price in San Jose:  https://www.redfin.com/CA/San-Jose/5054-Cribari-Vale-95135/home/1757659

 

OF course real estate is local and hard to compare apples to apples.

Millennials (born between 1981 and 1996, or ages 26 to 41 in 2022) make up a majority of potential homebuyers in most of the country’s largest metros,

Took 'em that long to save up for a down payment

I didn’t realize generations were compelled to move to the same places or maybe there’s a “journalist” splitting hairs with insignificant data in order to get clicks. It’s a shame ChatGPT going to make lazy journalism obsolete.

I agree it's soulless.  But those are nice digs!

Not bad style-wise, but I get the feeling it would have a very "cheap" feel when actually in it.

Kind of a weird article. I don’t think it has to do with popularity but the dynamics of expensive areas. Gen Zers can’t afford coastal metro areas yet and boomers/older Gen-Xers are paying cash if they buy at all, so it makes sense millennials would be the largest buying group by far in those areas.

Is someone asking for a mortgage offer on Lending Tree a good indicator where millennials are buying?

It could just as easily be an indicator where millennials are struggling to find a payment they can afford, and they're hitting every possible option.

Based on my personal experience and an informal survey of folks moving into our new development south of Tulsa... Gen-Xers are cashing out of these markets and parlaying it into more space and peace in the heartland.

Where'd the youngsters get all of the cash flow out of their Humanities Degrees?

It's ranked by share of mortgages offered to each age bracket.  It has zero to do with popularity, but probably much to do with affordability and population growth (past for Gen Y and present for Gen Z).

Heck, people are so desperate to live in three of those cities, they’re willing to live in giant hobo shantytowns to do it! 
 

Check and mate.
