Lifestage Groups capture a combination of three variables—affluence, householder age and whether there are children living at home—to help paint a more vivid picture of each segment’s likely lifestyle. As an example, what the three Lifestage Groups that comprise “Younger Years” share is that all of those households are, for the most part, young and childless. What differentiates Lifestage Group “Midlife Success” from Lifestage Group “Young Achievers” is the level of affluence each has achieved at this young age. Similarly, the four groups of segments that make up “Family Life” have children in common, while segments categorized as “Mature Years” are mostly empty nesters. The most affluent family segments fall into Lifestage Group F1 ”Accumulated Wealth,” which includes Blue Blood Estates, Country Squires, and Winner’s Circle. Segments in Younger Years (Y) consist of mostly singles and couples who are typically under 45 years old and have no children in the household. Residents may be too young to have children and/or are approaching middle age and choose not to have them. At the household level, age 45 and younger is the cutoff for most segments and among this younger set of segments, only those that are explicit in their lack of children or have very low indices for presence of children at the geographic level are included in Younger Years. Family Life (F) is composed of segments that have high indices for households with children under age 18. They may be married couples or single parent households. At the household level, presence of children is the primary driver for this class. This class also includes a few segments that while not explicit at the household level for presence of children, do show high indices at the geographic level for that characteristic. Age is not the key driver for this class; households with children are most typically under 55 years of age. Mature Years (M) is for segments whose residents are primarily over 55 years old and childless. These households may be empty-nests or those with children in their late teens, away at college, or now young adults living at home. At the household level, the primary driver is that they are over age 45 and not the absence of children. However, segments that are uniquely child-centered are grouped under Family Years and those under age 45 are grouped in Younger Years—leaving the last group of segments for the Mature Years class. Predominantly under age 45 and childless singles & couples Families with children in the household, including single parents Predominantly over age 55, empty-nest couples and mature singles Demographic Captions The demographic caption covers the four essential dimensions of income, age, household composition, and urbanization. They are often used as a demographic shorthand or substitute for the segment nickname. Income uses seven ranges, from Wealthy with incomes of $100k+ to Poor where incomes are generally well below $25k. Age uses four ranges, from Younger who are mostly under age 35, to Mature who are largely over 65 years of age. Household Composition uses five classes that cover singles, couples, families (married couples with children) and two mixed categories of singles and singles with children. Urbanization is a Claritas model that accounts for the population density of the assigned geography and its proximity to the downtown core of the metro area. Neighborhood measures correspond to Census 2000 and subsequent Claritas Updates and use neighborhood (BG) demographics and PRIZM NE assignments at the ZIP+4 level. Tenure / Housing Type uses a collection of categories to describe the overall type of housing and whether it is owned or rented. Predominant Age(s) uses eight non-exclusive classes, from Age<35 to Age 65+ and several combinations in between. Employment uses a collection of categories to collapse the broad range of Census occupational classes—spanning executives to farmers. Education uses a collection of categories to collapse the broad range of Census educational classes—spanning elementary schools to universities. Race & Ethnicity uses a collection of categories to collapse the broad range of Census race and Hispanic ancestry classes into a single indicator of ethnic diversity. Neighborhood Measures
