Nostalgia can be powerful. It can make you wistful for people, places, and days gone by. According to one new survey, it can even make you wish you could buy your childhood home and move back to the old neighborhood. The survey, which asked participants if they’d buy the home they grew up in, found a lot of us would. In fact, 44 percent of respondents said they’d buy their childhood home if cost weren’t an issue. Among younger Americans, the numbers were even higher. Nearly two-thirds of survey participants born in the 1980s said they’d like to move back home and 55 percent of those born in or after 1990 agreed. But while large percentages of Americans say they’d buy their childhood home if they could, that wish may have more to do with nostalgia for the carefree days of childhood than it does the actual layout and features of the house itself.
