        No, young Americans are just too indebt from college tuition and also can't find a well paying job to buy a house to start a family with.

        Imagine being dumb enough to think sex is the only reason people get married.

        Unfortunately that was common once he while marrying for property era ended. Good marriages are better than more marriages.

        imo less pressure to get married just for the sake of social norms, making only people who really want to get married to do so, is the cause

        Yup. Its cheap sex, totally not the fact that marriage ceremonies cost as much as a new house, or that people are being more selective in who/when they marry, or that marriage itself is just a financial construct to bind two people together

        Well i know there is a community of them built in Detroit, but mainly i think you have to contact the company that makes them. Google 'tinyhouse' and it should show up. and before you call bullshit, they are houses, tiny houses, but houses nonethelesss
