Majority of Women Remain Unmarried by the Age of 34

A majority of women between the ages of 16 and 34 have never married in Britain. as more young people are putting off starting families to achieve economic goals, or outright rejecting matrimony.

In the latest blow to the state of the traditional family in the UK, the once-in-a-decade census has revealed that a majority of women in every age group from 16 to 34-years-old have remained unmarried while the number of people overall getting married has fallen to its lowest level on record, the Office for National Statists (ONS) said on Tuesday.

According to the census figures, some 54.2 per cent of women aged between 30 to 34 were unmarried as of 2021, an 11 per cent increase over the previous census in 2011 and over twice as many recorded in 1991 when just 18.3 per cent of 30-34 year old women were unwed. There was also a 13 per cent increase in unmarried women between the ages of 25 and 29, 80.5 per cent of whom were recorded as never marrying.

While the decline in marriage is often attributed to younger generations putting it off until later years, this apparently does not always work out for many women, with the data showing that one in four (23.9 per cent) of women never entered into a marriage or civil partnership by the age of 50.
