With 77 million Americans born between 1946 and 1964, it is no wonder that builders and developers look to this generation of baby boomers as trend-setters in the housing market. So when Hanley Wood, a leading edge business media and information firm, and DYG research firm, surveyed home-owning baby boomers to find out what they want in their homes, builders were eager to apply the information.
The Hanley Wood survey, published in part in Big Builder Magazine, indicated that 58 percent of those surveyed wanted to move to a smaller home. More than a third wanted to remodel or move in order to have a single-story home. Instead of a single, large home in one location, 44 percent of those surveyed indicated that they would prefer a second home and split the square footage between two houses, prompting many national builders to reintroduce the vacation home — a smaller, lower-priced home. The detached, single-family home was the preferred housing type for 72 percent of those surveyed.
