Newly released gures show that the number of young adults still living with their parents has almost doubled in the past decade.

And young men are less likely to leave the family home compared to their female counterparts, according to new data from Eurostat.

For women in this age group, 61% have yet to move out, while almost three-quarters (74%) of men have yet to y the nest.

However, a decade ago, just 36% of those aged 25 to 29 were still living with their parents.

A combination of high rents and a lack of a ordable housing means more Irish adults than ever before are unable to leave the family home.

In 2019, fewer than half (45%) of Irish adults aged 25-29 were living with their parents, which was only just above the EU average.

In 2020 and 2021 the gures climbed to 52% and 61% respectively as the country struggled through the Covid19 pandemic which saw many young adults return to their childhood home.

However, as other EU countries saw a decline in the number of adults living with their parents since then, in Ireland it has increased still further and now stands at 68%.

In comparison, just 5.7% of Finnish adults aged 25-29 live with their parents, 4.4% of Danes and 6.3% of Swedes. In France, a quarter of adults in their mid to late 20s are still living at home.
