Iowa, South Dakota, and Vermont were among those that welcomed new residents—particularly those craving a country setting and fewer neighbors.Multigenerational Living

Nationwide, multigenerational living is on the rise as families merge to accommodate and assist with anything from caregiving to financial and emotional support.
