Millennial Urban Dwelling: Home Furnishing For Small Spaces
The American Millennial has grown up. In their 30s, they are more established in their careers and interested in purchasing real estate and quality home furnishings.
In fact, according to the National Association of Realtors, 35% of all home purchases last year were made by Millennials, making them the largest share of homebuyers in the country.

Whether they are buying or renting, one thing is for sure: while urban-dwelling Millennials may not be going big on square footage, they are still going big on style.
