#1 (It peaked at just over 69% in 2004.)

I thought the peak in ownership was just before the crash, no?

#2 The one thing I like about things slowing up is the urban sprawl has stopped. They always took prime productive farmland and cut down all the trees. Unique wildlife gone also. I'm old so I can see the before and after. Hiking and paddling areas harder to reach and many areas charge fees.
Not to mention weekend kids party trash. I suspect people are moving into group homes. Forget childcare it's too expensive for most young people. So extended families is the best choice with limited resources. Like it was in the depression times.
