October Health – 2025 Report
25-34 Demographic in United States
Finances and money management (debt, student loans, housing costs) are the leading source of stress for people aged 25–34 in the United States. In a work context, offering financial wellness resources and mental health support—such as October’s digital group sessions and content—can help address this stress.
How mental health affects the 25-34 demographic differently
- Financial pressures (student loans, housing costs, saving for future goals)
- Career progression and job security (promotion pressure, layoffs, market volatility)
- Family planning and parenting responsibilities (fertility considerations, childcare decisions, parental leave)
- Housing mobility and relocation demands (job changes requiring moves, renting vs buying)
- Work-life balance and boundary management (blurring lines between work and personal life, time for relationships and self-care)
- Sleep and health impacts from busy schedules (sleep debt, irregular hours, stress-related health symptoms)
