From the BLS website
U6 is Total unemployed, plus all marginally attached workers, plus total employed part time for economic reasons, as a percent of the civilian labor force plus all marginally attached workers.

Many, myself included, consider this a more accurate number than the U-3 number that is reported as the “official” unemployment rate. 16% of people are unemployed or working part time when they want to work full time.

[quote=lifeisgood] It seems to me that because the inventory is low in the used house market at this price point, it makes sense to buy new. [/quote]
Be very careful with that reasoning. There are tremendous expenses with new homes that first timers don’t realize. Landscaping, upgrades, curtains, shutters can be very expensive if you pay retail. On a resale home between 3-8 years old, you can sometimes get all the upgrades for free and usually have lower Mello-Roos, etc. But “good” inventory is bad now, so a toss up.
