SPRINGFIELD – The U.S. Census Bureau recently reported that multi-generational families living under one roof has become a much more common practice in the last decade.
The number of such households, defined as those with three or more generations living under one roof, grew to almost 5.1 million in 2010, a 30 percent increase from 3.9 million in 2000.
I am interested in interviewing families in Western Massachusetts living in this situation. I am looking to find out more about the pros and cons of sharing a home with many generations of family members.
