Rising housing costs are making it difficult for first-time buyers to secure a home, an issue concerning young voters ahead of November’s election.

Several issues are important to voters which could sway their decision for who they select as the next president in November’s election. And one issue resonating with young voters is housing affordability. In a new survey by Redfin, approximately 91% of Gen Zers say housing affordability is important when considering their choice for president. Redfin noted that only 26% of Gen Zers already own a home as prices for housing have skyrocketed over 40% before the pandemic homebuying craze.

There were 180 responses from Gen Zers, 844 from millennials, 843 from Gen Xers, and 1,128 from baby boomers and older generations. Redfin asked the groups how important certain issues are when considering how they may vote in the upcoming presidential election.
