Elizabeth Warren's book The Two-Income Trap argued that dual income couples priced out single income families from the best locations.

It makes sense that DINKs and childless single people are simply reacting to the same economic incentives and now pricing out dual income families.

I think high-rents is a major driver of this decision. The USDA puts the cost of your first kid at $14.4k annually edited. That is primarily due to housing.
