Young American Men Lead in Religion, Reversing the 29-and-Under Gender Gap
TL;DR Summary
Gallup's 2024–2025 data show 18–29-year-old men now rate religion as 'very important' at 42%, up from 28%, while their female peers are at 30%; this reverses a long-standing gap for this age group. Young men also edge ahead in religious affiliation (63% vs. 60%) and attend services more frequently (40% vs. 39%), with the rise largely driven by young Republicans. The shift is unique to the 18–29 group; older adults, including women, remain less religious on these measures.
