In the year of establishment, did the first group of post-80s have been established? How are their living conditions? This was investigated. Compared with the post-70s, when the post-80s entered their 30s, their jobs were not stable enough, they were under great pressure of life such as housing loans, and 30% of them were single. Growing up in a changing society, they bear more double pressures from reality and psychology.
In 2011, the "oldest" group of the post-80s generation has reached the threshold of 30. Henan has conducted a survey of the "living conditions of the post-70s and the post-80s at the age of 30". The results show that among the post-80s who first entered the threshold of "30", three adults are still single, four adults have no room, seven adults have no car, six adults fear family responsibilities, and their living conditions are not ideal.
Compared with the post-80s generation, the life of the post-70s generation seems to be more stable. They have become families, children and stable jobs.
Confusion has become the biggest feeling of the post-80s, and the post-70s have more choices to let nature take its course
In the era of high housing prices, together with the only child facing a small couple supporting four old people and one child, confusion and pressure have become the common feelings of many post-80s. According to the survey, 67.72% of the post-80s feel confused and full of pressure, and 10% of them rate themselves as rebellious and avantgarde. Speaking of the future, Ma Nan, who works in the computer industry, will feel confused and stressed.
As the first generation to enter the city, he bought a house to support his family, which often made him suffocate. Although she can't see through the future, Ma Nan has carefully planned her future life. For example, she will try to have a baby in the past two years and buy a car if possible. According to the survey, nearly 41.4% of the post-80s said they were living in the future according to the plan. However, only 33.3% of the post-70s live as planned. Compared with the post-80s, more post-70s choose to live naturally in the future, and the post-80s are more careful to build their future life under the harsh reality.
45% of the first post-80s have no children, and 74% of the post-70s have children
In the 1970s and 1980s, 30-year-old people and children had already run all over the ground. Now, many post-80s people who have just entered their 30s have just married. According to the survey data, only 73.8% of the first post-80s who entered the age threshold of 30 were married, while nearly 90% of the post-70s were married at the age of 30.
Zhang Na, a 30-year-old citizen, said that entering the family means bearing pressure, and she wants to be free for another two years before getting married. Chen Ling, a marriage and family consultant of Zhengzhou Weiqing Marriage Consulting Company, said that love of freedom, fashion and pursuit of personality liberation have become the reasons for many post-80s marriage.
With the postponement of marriage age, the time to have children is also postponed. Among the first group of post-80s, 45.3% had no children, while 74.1% of post-70s had children at the age of 30. Many post-80s people think that they just got married and are under great pressure such as mortgage and don't want to become "child slaves" so soon.
More people have houses after the 1970s, and more people have cars after the 1980s
Having a car and a house is a symbol of the quality of life. However, according to the survey, at the age of 30, more people in the post-70s have houses and more people in the post-80s have cars. In the eyes of 40-year-old Zhang Kai, the word "home" means that there are several people living under the house. So even if you borrow money, you should buy a house. But Chen Jun, a post-80s generation, believes that the pressure to buy a house is too great, so it is better to buy a car first to improve the quality of life.
According to the survey, 70% of the post-80s have houses, and only 60% of the post-80s have houses. But about 20% of the post-70s have cars and 25% of the post-80s have cars. Chen Jun is 30 years old this year and works in an advertising company with a monthly salary of 2500. In her eyes, "you can't buy half a square meter without eating or drinking" is better not to buy.
According to the survey, 78% of the post-80s can buy a house less than 1 square meter with their salary in one month, and 22% can buy a house more than 1 square meter with their salary. Ten years ago, at the age of 70 and 30, 69% of people could buy a house of less than 1 square meter with a month's salary, and 31% could buy a house of 1 square meter or more with a month's salary.
In comparison, the pressure of house prices on the post-70s is slightly lower. Half of the post-80s have changed jobs at least twice, and the post-70s' job stability survey shows that nearly half of the post-80s have changed jobs at least twice before the age of 30, and 36% of the post-80s have not yet had a stable job.
