"New Data Reveals Increase in Marriage Rates and Decrease in Divorce Rates"

New data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s National Center for Health Statistics shows that marriage rates have increased in 2022 after a dip during the start of the pandemic, reaching 6.2 per 1,000 people. The decline in divorce rates, down to 2.4 per 1,000 people in 2022, continues a downward trend. Experts attribute the rise in marriages to couples becoming more intentional about their relationships during lockdowns, while the shift towards "companionate marriages" may be contributing to long-term stability and satisfaction.
