No one’s coming over Derek Thompson's essay reports that the share of Americans who host friends or family at home at least monthly fell from 42% in 1975 to 12% in 2026, a 70% decline, based on Data For Progress replicating DDB Needham Life Style surveys. It adds that between 1975 and 1998 the share who gave or attended a monthly dinner party halved and the share who never entertained at home tripled.
