This highlights really important factor in all discussions; employees can be in a very different life situation which naturally leads to different priorities. Congratulations on yours!
Give employees a decent worklife balance and guaranteed access to a home, most jobhopping would stop and the headhunter population would be an order of magnitude smaller.
That's really what's happening here, people job hopping to keep the status quo of the previous generation(s).
I'm curious about why this matter?
As an european, owning is not a goal in my life. I would love to, but for now, I still want flexibility on my wereabouts.
Owning gives you a different kind of flexibility. Renting is usually pretty restrictive in the US, and if you want to put up a fence for your dog, grow a garden, paint your walls, or whatever you usually can't.
