    Because it used to be a sign that someone was unsuccessful or “lazy”. Now it just means the housing market is absolute dog shit, and people making 200k a year still can’t afford to buy a house near their work.

    Multi-generational households have been the most common form of familial living arrangements in human history, so, take that as you will.
