I'm 30; married, own a home, have a child.
I live in central Ohio, OH down 33 a bit. We live in a neighborhood that has many retirees, but on our own street we have at least 6 house (out of 30 that are being rented out to people older than me.
What happened was that when the FED cut rates in 2020, all these Boomers took early retirement and decided to pay cash for a new home and condo down in Florida. So they moved to their new home with a large acreage and decided to rent out their old house and condo.
So two empty nesters with an equity of $500k, snowballed that into a nest egg of millions in only 3 years. When everybody else decided to jump into the market to buy a new home in 2021, the prices started to inflate due to basic supply and demand.
I personally don't have anything against Baby Boomers, but there's a reason why they are despised. It's because by 1987 they were in their prime working years. They got to buy LOW in 1987, 2000, 2008, and 2020. All the while Gen X and every other generation were barely on their feet before every one of those recessions hit the market. I don't blame them for that, but I do get irritated when they construe it as hard work instead of lucky timing

Unfortunately, in the United States at least, the online dating phenomenon was created because of rising anti-social issues.
Personally, I began dating at 19 and found my wife at 24; she and I found each other online. I asked out 12 different women in those years and 4 of them turned into dates. The reason I went online was because there was a major problem with the social attitude of many girls that I spoke to. Many of them think its perfectly accessible to reel you along, insult you, be overtly sarcastic for no reason, or outright use you. I'm not sure if it was always this way, but it's certainly that way now.
After a while, I realized I was just wasting my time by asking women out in person. It's a lot of effort for the reward of being insulted, belittled, or used.
Many young women have no problem having you take them out on a string of dates (for free food). Just to tell you on the third or fourth date that they aren't interested in relationships. After you clearly tell them that your intentions are to eventually find a good wife and have children when you get to know each other.
Dating online simply allows both men AND women to cut through all the drama and garbage and connect with people that want similar things.
On a side note, I'm pretty sure the dating market was ironically destroyed by social media and the internet. Men obviously have their own string of problems that usually stem from immaturity, narcissism, or even Christian men that assume they are going to rule over their woman. I actually didn't know that was a thing until I met men that espoused those viewpoints. Women tend to be troubled by exaggerated egos and an irrational view of what it takes to build a life or family. Ultimately leading to pampered and entitled behavior towards family and strangers.
Many of the younger women have fallen out of favor in my extended family (including my own sister) because of excessive attitude problems.
