I can't speak for the population as a whole, but I'm in my early thirties, and I'm the only one of my friends in my city who owns his own home, and I think that's directly related to why I host more often than they do.
We’re not comparing you to your friends, we’re comparing people today to people in 1975z You said you host a couple a year. The article said people in ‘75 hosted once a month. So you, a homeowner, already reflect this massive drop. The decrease in hosting is over 60% regardless of age, homeownership is UP in the same time period, down 10% in the youngest cohort, not enough to account for the massive drop in dinner parties.
