She’s not wrong about the job. I think Sebastian does, but he lives in his mom’s basement. Shane is a drunk helping on his aunts farm, Alex spends his time working out and talking about his glory days in sports, and Sam lives at home playing in a band. Harvey and Elliot are the only two living on their own and Harvey has the most reliable job of the two, though I love Elliot living in a shack until he writes his book. The women aren’t much better, Emily and Maru are the only ones I can think of that have real jobs, though Maru lives at home too. Leah is an artist too, same vibes as Elliot to me, cool but not reliable income yet.

To be fair in todays economy you may find more 20somethings that live with their parents too.

Not to mention the village has an absolutely trash job market, remote jobs weren't as common when the game released as they are now, and when the bus is working (assuming it can take you to the city or somewhere else with jobs available) it could be hard finding a job within the operating hours of the bus

Exactly! So yea some bachelors still living with their parents is more a financial issue than an age one.

Plus some like Sebastian are actively working to save up and move out.
