This Spring, ULI Washington commissioned an update of its survey of Millennials living inside the Beltway conducted in 2015.  The question this time is:  how much difference does three years make in the lifestyles and attitudes of Washington’s Millennial residents?  The answer is:  surprisingly little.  Yes, they are older; yes, a higher share is married or partnered; and yes, homeownership is up.  However, the District of Columbia and the suburbs inside the Beltway are not at imminent risk of losing their Millennials:  one-half of our survey respondents “love D.C. and plan to stay forever.”  Those in their mid-to-late-30s are even more likely to remain.

The survey presents a comprehensive view of Millennials living within the Beltway, their housing circumstances, and their attitudes towards living in the District and its adjacent suburbs.  Of the 1,369 respondents, 62% live in the District of Columbia and 38% are in selected Virginia and Maryland zip codes inside the Beltway.  This is a “survey of the willing” rather than a representative sample of 23-40-year-olds dwelling inside the Beltway.  Though not statistically representative, the survey results are both intuitively credible and in sync with the 2015 findings.
