For the first time, there are more single people in the United States and married people, according to a new research report.
The government first began gathering information on marital status in 1976, when 37.4 percent of the population was single, which included those who were never married and divorced,
A report by financial researcher Ed Yardeni found that in August singles for the first time topped 50 percent of the population 16 and older.
Of the 248.2 million people in the U.S. who are 16 and older, 124,6 are single, compared with 123.6 who are married.
