Stressed by Housing, Money, and Work
A study of stress in the U.S. finds that housing costs worry 51 percent of adults.
The survey by Harris Interactive for the American Psychological Association found housing is a “very significant or somewhat significant” source of stress of 61 percent of residents in the West and 55 percent of those in the East, compared with 47 percent in the Midwest and 43 percent in the South.
Money and work are two other serious sources of stress with 73 percent of Americans stressed out by concerns over money and 74 percent worrying about work. That’s up from 59 percent for both last year.
The survey found that nearly half (48 percent) of Americans believe their stress has increased over the past five years.
And you?
