Millennials Don’t Consider Themselves Adults Until 30

Turns out, you might be a millennial and not even know it. Even if you’re approaching 40. As TheWrap.com’s Tony Maglio reports, according to new research by CBS’ TV ratings guru David Poltrack and Nielsen Catalina Solutions, the youngest millennials should be graduating college this year – but that doesn’t mean they all consider themselves adults.
The median age of millennials is 30, Poltrack says – meaning that half are older and half are younger. And 30 happens to be the age at which millennials tend to self-identify as adults, Poltrack said. For these purposes, an ‘adult’ is defined as ‘someone who has moved out of their parents’ home, has a job, and pays their own bills.’
