Demographics driving future home buying

64.7 percent of the population aged 25 to 64 now have a postsecondary degree or diploma compared to 60.8 percent in 2006.

Almost all of this gain can be attributed to women. Two thirds of women aged 25 to 64 had a postsecondary degree or diploma, up from 60.5 percent in 2006. Proportionally, fewer men had higher education degrees (62.9 percent), and this was up only slightly from 2006 (61.1 percent). Environics Analytics
