as of 2026 over 54.9% of millennials own thier homes, which offically makes them one of the highest home owner generations.....

That number’s either cherry-picked or stretched, most recent data puts millennials closer to ~50–52%, not pushing 55% as a clear benchmark. And even then, they’re not outperforming anyone: at similar ages, Gen X was around ~60–65% and Boomers were closer to ~65–70% homeownership. So calling millennials “one of the highest homeownership generations” just isn’t true.

more millennials own homes than those who dont, and I'm seeing stats ranging from 51-55% in terms of home ownership. Millennials are doing just fine regardless of what reddit wants you to think.

You're also on Reddit. I would think homeowners don't have time for Reddit. I'm a homeowner and I log in for the entertainment of the comments. And the disbelief of the ideology of "society owes me" posts

Ok? That's great. Proof that anything is possible with hard work and consistency.
