The over 40s are renting rooms Family breakdowns and rising house prices are forcing many people over 40 to return to flatsharing with strangers. Flatsharing websites, which normally cater to students and those in their 20s, have seen an unprecedented boom in the number of older people in need of housing. In 2013, more than 60,000 people over 40 placed room wanted adverts with Spareroom, one of the largest websites - 20,000 more than five years ago. The over-40s now make up about one in eight of those looking for a home. The Observer, Page: 13
