A recent report from the U.S. Census Bureau details marriage and divorce rates in different regions of the United States. According to the report, states in the South had both the highest marriage and divorce rates.
On the contrary, states in the Northeast were found to have the lowest marriage and divorce rates. New Jersey was the state with the lowest marriage and divorce rate for both men and women.
The data used in the report was collected from 3 million households that participated in the 2009 American Community Survey.
Authors of the report say the most striking thing they found was that the average age to get married at in the United States has increased to 28.4 years for men and 26.5 years for women.
