45% of Americans Are Cool with Holiday Décor Staying Up All Year?
Every neighborhood has that one house where the holiday decorations linger a LITTLE too long. But maybe that's no big deal?
According to a new survey, the date when holiday decorations should be taken down is January 16th . . . this coming Thursday. That was based on an average among people who believe there SHOULD be a deadline.
But 45% of people say there shouldn't be a specific "decorations down date." The survey suggests that means those people are, "happy to see the lights and decorations stay up long into the new year, [or] all year."
That seems like a generous interpretation. Especially if they're implying that CHRISTMAS lights and inflatables should be kept out and active year-round.
In any event, Millennials are the most chill about decorations staying out, while Boomers were the LEAST likely to support it.
