In the following 10 years, the marriage rate remained unchanged before it fell by 0.5 million to 2000. Meanwhile, America experienced a higher number of divorced adults, approximately 1.5 million in 1980 and then it fell back to 1000 million in 2000.

In the second chart, the share of adults who were married was at 70%, this figure slightly decreased by 10 % in 2000. There was a moderate fall in the number of widowed adults from around 9 % to 7% in 1970 and 2000 respectively. Meanwhile, the rate of never-married adults and divorcees grow by 10% in total in the recorded time.
