30s roommates are pretty common in my area. I'm 31, live in a nice place with 32 yo guy roommate. We both have decent jobs and could easily afford separate places, but this way we can save quite a bit per month. It's also a fun living situation - it's nice having someone to crack a beer with after work, plus we get along well and enjoy hosting events at the place. Neither of us are in a hurry to settle down, so what's the point of paying high rent for the sake of living alone?
The only people that seem to have an issue with this are brainwashed women who rage at the thought of a single male being happy. Usually this rage takes the form of attempts to shame and label as immature, but unsurprisingly this comes from either unemployed early-marriage wives or single older girls who have fucked their way through their 20s and are shocked that no one wants to put a ring on their 29-yo finger.
Anyways, I digress - roommates can be great in your 30s.
