This Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, we celebrate the expansive variety of ages, cultures and backgrounds of all Americans. The apartment industry, especially, provides fair and equal housing to all persons, regardless of factors like age, race or sex. There really is an apartment for every demographic group and every life situation, including:
Baby Boomers
The new Baby Boomers don’t just sit around the apartment after their children move out. Instead, they are increasingly choosing urban apartments, where they can walk or bike to enjoy restaurants, shopping, plays and other activities.
Generation X
The children of Baby Boomers, or Generation X, are very practical, self-reliant and independent. They know that it makes financial sense to rent an apartment versus home ownership – where maintenance and repair expenses are constant. Generation X is also a very social group, and apartments allow them the freedom to spend time with their friends.
Millennials
Millennials don’t want to own homes or cars, so the apartment lifestyle is perfect them. Many apartment communities – especially those in urban centers – offer residents the ability to walk or ride bike to work, grocery stores and other locations.
Generation Z
Born between 1994 and 2000, this group is even more independent than Generation Y and Millennials. These independent thinkers are likely to choose apartments, in order to have financial stability and live the independent lifestyle they enjoy.
Military
While the armed forces are this group’s number one priority, they also appreciate having private time with their families. Apartments near base offer them the convenience of being close to work but also they benefit of spending time with family and friends – instead of the communal, dorm-style housing offered on some bases.
Occupation
It doesn’t matter what you do for a living or where you work, there is an apartment for you. Apartment communities house blue-collar workers of all types alongside their white-collar counterparts.
Income
Right now, there are apartments available to fit almost any economic need. Apartment-seekers looking for more affordable housing options have a variety of choices, including rent-subsidized apartments and micro-units – available in many urban markets. On the other end of the spectrum, luxury apartments are available in almost every metro area of the U.S. Of course, everything is available in between.
