America’s landlords should start popping the cork. The number of people renting has reached its highest level since 1965 and that number won’t be going down anytime soon, according to a new report from Freddie Mac.

In the survey, 36.6% of U.S. households are now renting, and a huge majority of today’s renters—78%—think renting is more affordable than buying. In fact, nearly a quarter of renters claim not have any interest in ever owning a home.

The struggle is real to pay the rent

While the majority of renters surveyed (63%) say they’re satisfied with their experience (presumably none of them live in places like this), it’s not all carefree Hygge living in the world of rentals. The number of renters who had difficulty paying the landlord each month reached 66%, and when that’s broken down by age, it’s millennials aged 28 to 37 who had the most trouble. Of that group, 79% said they struggled to pay the rent sometime over the past two years. To make ends meet, most of renters had to cut back on what’s considered essential spending—think more groceries and the water bill and less having to choose between Netflix and Hulu.

Home ownership comes with some new expenses you didn’t have to worry about as a renter—namely a mortgage payment and homeowners insurance. If renting still makes the most sense financially after factoring in the additional payments of owning a home, there’s still ways to make your rent cheaper, such as taking on a roommate. For example, renting in the notoriously expensive Bay Area gets a little less painful if you are willing to give up some privacy, as shown in the data compiled below.

It may not be your first choice to have an extra person sharing the shower and kitchen, but it beats having to duck your landlord every time you see them in the hall.
