🏡 Homeownership Rates & Ownership Totals (2024-2025)
📊 Homeownership Rates

A recent analysis indicates that single women have a higher homeownership rate than single men:
≈ 51.9% of single women own homes, compared with about 49.6% of single men.

🧑‍🦱 Total Owner-Occupied Homes

There are more homes owned by single women than by single men nationwide. In data covering trends into 2025:

Single women own about 11.14 million homes

Single men own about 8.42 million homes

That means single women control a larger share of owner-occupied housing units (roughly 13.01% vs 9.83%) of all owner-occupied homes.

This reflects both the higher rate and larger absolute number of single female homeowners.

🔑 Homebuyers in 2024 (Recent Purchase Activity)

According to the National Association of Realtors (NAR) 2024 survey data:

20% of homebuyers were single women

8% of homebuyers were single men

Married couples still made up the majority at 62%.

This shows that single women are buying homes at about 2.5× the rate of single men among recent buyers.
