Young Americans are likelier to have children without marrying than older Americans. Not so surprising.

But they are even more likely to do so amid high income inequality, a study released today in American Sociological Review finds. 

Lead author Andrew Cherlin, a sociologist at Johns Hopkins University, and his team studied 9,000 young men and women from 1997 to 2011.
