There’s a higher percentage of men aged 25 to 34 working than there has been since the Great Recession.

Along with the increase in participation, median weekly earnings have also gone up for this cohort, most of whom are millennials. Median usual weekly earnings for men 25 to 34 shot up 9.9% in the fourth quarter compared to the same period of 2017, the second-fastest rate of growth in the history of the series.
