In 2019, PHCPPros launched the "Millennials On The Move" honorary listing in Plumbing Engineer, PHC News and The Wholesaler magazines. The listing was created to shed light on what is now the largest generation in the workforce, while also launching bigger conversations on topics such as industry recruiting, talent retention, leadership development and more. This year, PHCPPros is expanding that conversation outside of our industry with a convenient roundup of the millennial news, stories, and trends that catch our attention each month.

Last month's conversation around millennials' return to the suburbs continues, with a recent survey showing more than one-third of the generation are considering moving out of cities within the next year. Additionally, did you know that more than half of the nation’s total population are now members of the millennial generation or younger? Read the full reports below to learn what changes these shifting statistics may bring to the United States.
