Women Leading More U.S. Households Reach 10 Million
Sylvia Porter reports that over 10 million U.S. households are headed by women in 1963, now 18.5 percent of all households. The rise stems from longer female lifespans, rising divorce and widowhood, more single women, and greater earnings via Social Security and pensions. Business implications include demand for smaller, single-person packages, compact apartments, and leisure options tailored to older widowed, divorced, or single women.
