That figure comes from Chamber of Commerce, an organization offering resources for small business owners and entrepreneurs. It recently analyzed Census Bureau data for more than 170 U.S. cities with a population of at least 150,000, and ranked them according to the percentage of the population living in one-person households.
Since the pandemic, the number of Americans who live alone has grown; 2.4 million more people live by themselves today than in 2019, per the report.
Twenty-nine percent of U.S. households are single-person. But in some cities — like these top 10 — those rates are nearly double:
1. Washington, D.C. — 48.6% of the population lives alone
2. Birmingham, Ala. — 48.2%
3. St. Louis — 47.5%
4. Atlanta — 47%
5. Cleveland — 46.2%
6. Pittsburgh — 46.1%
7. Cincinnati — 44.2%
8. Alexandria, Va. — 43.6%
9. Minneapolis — 43.5%
10. Richmond, Va. — 42.9%
