Russians named the right time to move away from their parents

On average, Russians start living separately from their parents at the age of 26. The majority, 41% of them, are moving into a rented apartment, according to the results of a survey conducted by Sberbank Insurance, which was reviewed by Izvestia on March 26.

A quarter of the respondents expressed the opinion that it is necessary to start living separately only when you have your own real estate. Another 15% are inclined to believe that it is worth moving away from parents immediately after receiving higher education, and 4% — immediately after coming of age. The same number, 4% of the survey participants, see the point of moving to their own or rented housing after the wedding. Another 3% stressed that this can be done until the family has its own children.

At the same time, 12% of Russians agreed that moving was unnecessary and that everyone should live together. Also, 22% of respondents believe that each situation is individual.
