The American Time Use Survey (ATUS) produces estimates about how Americans spend their time on an average day. This article uses 2017 data from the ATUS to compare the time use of individuals in younger generations (millennials) with that of individuals in older generations (nonmillennials). Time use varies greatly across one’s life stages, such as those related to retirement, childrearing, or employment. This variation accounts for many of the differences in how millennials and nonmillennials spent their time in 2017.
