Most people who had ever divorced are currently married.
In 1996, 20 percent of men and 22 percent of women age 15 and over had ever been divorced. Less than half were still divorced (8 percent of men and 10 percent of women). The percent ever divorced was highest among men 40 to 59 years old (35 percent) and among women 40 to 49 years old (37 percent).
Lower proportions ever divorced among people age 60 and over than among those 40 to 59 are in part a result of the fact that these people represent the cohort who started families during the baby boom period of the 1950s and 1960s when divorce was not as common and divorce laws were more restrictive. Also, this difference for people age 60 and over is in part due to higher mortality rates among divorced people, as these percentages reflect the marital status only of people who have survived to the survey date.
The percent of adults in 1996 who had ever been widowed was higher for women than for men (12 versus
4 percent), reflecting the higher mortality rates for men. Of the two people in a given married couple, the man is more likely to die first. In addition, since husbands are generally older than their wives, there are more likely to be higher proportions of widowed women than widowed men of the same age. Most women age 70 and over in 1996 had been widowed (58 percent), compared with only 25 percent of men age 70 and over.
Most people in this age group who had experienced widowhood were currently widowed (19 percent of men and 55 percent of women).
