People 'take more foreign holidays'
Updated on 02 July 2010
People are living longer, taking more foreign holidays and staying in education longer compared with 40 years ago, according to a report.
The Social Trends report, published by the Office for National Statistics, paints a picture of a nation very different from how it was when the first report appeared in 1970.
Its editor, Matthew Hughes, said: "We are now living longer, less of us get married and household sizes are smaller. More of us have cars, women are having babies later in life and more of our household spending goes on housing, water and fuel."
