Market Overview
“Future Forecast”
For the first time since 1947, America’s most common age is no longer part of the Baby Boomgeneration. Millennials have taken over. According to Census Bureau information, 22-year-olds are the most represented age group in America, followed by 23-year-olds and then 21-year-olds.
The rising prevalence of young 20-somethings can be explained by a combination of immigration and aging. Immigration has added people to the ranks of ages up until about 40 years old, when it begins to tail off. That means that the younger age groups continue to grow in size as the older ones start to fade away. 1
These consumers are entering the “age of acquisition”, when they’re buying their first car, securing credit, finding new career opportunities, getting married, purchasing the first home, having children and much more. They are trend setters and looking for the goods and services that fit their lifestyles and belief systems. They will be the driving consumer force for the next decade and beyond. Today in marketing, age matters, and the Lotus Radio Group is positioned perfectly.
