When Builder magazine was looking for industry experts to discuss the rise in the number of single homebuyers, we connected the publication with Taylor Johnson client Lexington Homes to discuss the popularity of its Chicago-area townhome and single-family rowhome communities among both single men and women. As the story notes, the increasing number of singles (who now represent 28% of all households) is a significant global demographic change with far-reaching consequences that will impact housing, transportation, natural resources and energy. Also featured in the article is TJ client KTGY Architecture + Planning, who discusses the trend of mini- and micro-homes for singles.
