Nearly one in five people say they've had a political disagreement with a neighbor, according to a new report investigation It was released on Wednesday.
A poll released by real estate company Redfin found that 18.7% of respondents disagree with their neighbors over politics. By gender, 27.1% of men disagreed with this topic compared to 13.4% of women.
Almost a quarter of those surveyed, or 23.1%, said they would vote for former President Trump, the Republican candidate. Approximately 19.5% said they would vote for Vice President Harris.
The survey found that young people were the most likely to disagree about politics. Approximately 26.4% of Gen Z respondents said they have had disagreements with their neighbors when talking about politics. This was followed by Millennials at 23.5 percent, Gen Xers at 14.3 percent, and Baby Boomers at 13.6 percent.
Almost 12% of survey respondents said they have disagreements with their neighbors over racial issues. Men were slightly more likely than women to say they had such disagreements: 15.3 percent versus 9.5 percent.
The survey also found that nearly one in three respondents (30.4%) said they discuss politics with their neighbors “regularly,” with 40.9% of men doing so more often than women (24%). It also turned out to be expensive.
Almost one in four Trump voters (39%) say they “regularly” discuss politics with their neighbors, more than 7 percentage points higher than Harris voters (32.7%).
The poll, commissioned by Redfin, was conducted by Ipsos in September among 1,802 homeowners and renters between the ages of 18 and 65.
