In this May 31, 2014, file photo, members of the graduating class and faculty attend the Savannah College of Art and Design commencement in Atlanta. For the first time on record, living with parents is now the most common arrangement for Americans ages 18 to 34, an analysis of Census data by the Pew Research Center has found.

According to a Pew Research Center report released Tuesday, "living with a parent is the most common young adult living arrangement for the first time on record."  

The analysis found that 32.1 percent of 18- to 34-year-olds called their parents' place home in 2014, while 31.6 percent lived with a spouse or partner in their own home. And living with mom and dad was more common for millennial men, at 35 percent, than women, at 29 percent.
