The percentage of adults describing themselves as feeling “significant loneliness” has declined steadily since 2021 as the COVID-19 pandemic has faded, GallupIn the polling company’s Health and Well-Being Index, 17% of respondents representing an estimated 44 million people said they felt lonely “a lot of the day yesterday,” down from a pandemic-era high of 25% in December 2020 and March 2021. Gallup started asking the question in March 2020, when pandemic lockdowns began.
The poll found loneliness is highest among low-income, young adult singles. It also noted that loneliness has faded fastest among those respondents. Currently, 24% of adults aged 18-29 describe themselves as significantly lonely, down 14 percentage points from a December 2020 high. Among people earning less than $24,000 a year, the share has dropped by 15 points to 27% over the same period.
