Homeownership is often lumped into the “American dream” but not everyone’s buying in.

Here’s some quick stats that break down the trend.

 

105 million: Number of Americans who rent their homes.

20 years ago: The last time the renter population was this high.

43 percent: Number of Raleigh renters planning to eventually purchase a home
or apartment, compared to 60 percent nationwide.
