You got: 18. 18 may seem like a young age to get married, but when you know you've found The One, you KNOW — and you don't want to waste any time beating around the bush. Don't worry about other people judging you if you choose to walk down the aisle too early. Two scenarios: 1. Get married while you're still young: That would be between just after graduation (22-24 years old) to late 20s (27-29 years old). You'll be still quite young and will get more time to enjoy married life and grow as a person in that new relationship. College-educated women are unlikely to have a child before getting married For college-educated women, the average age of first birth (30) has risen along with the average age of marriage (27). Only 12 percent of births by college graduates are to unmarried women. The oldest-marrying states are New York (28.8 for women, 30.3 for men), Massachusetts (28.8, 30.1), Rhode Island (28.5, 30.2), Connecticut (28.2, 30.0) and New Jersey (28.1, 30.1). But D.C. politicos seem to have the hardest time settling down, with the median age of first marriage at 29.8 for women and 30.6 for men. While the nationwide trend shows millenials getting married at a later age, that doesn't mean it's true for every state. In fact, as the U.S. Census' five-year data proves, there are regional discrepancies in the average age of marriage. Americans are getting married later and later. The average age of first marriage in the United States is 27 for women and 29 for men, up from 23 for women and 26 for men in 1990 and 20 and 22 (!) in 1960. I don't believe there is a best age for marriage. I believe what matters is the maturity of the two people who are getting married. People mature at different rates. I know people who are 21 who are extremely mature and people who are 45 who are not. In most hunter-gatherers, women marry at around 17-19 years old, and men in their 20s. This is because that's when they're old enough to have and properly care for children. It's not when they first have their periods; they usually have their first children 3-4 years after their first periods. Women without college degrees are very likely to have a child before getting married Less-educated women have a much different experience with marriage and childbirth. For women without a college degree, the average age of first birth has not risen apace with the average age of marriage.
