Is keeping your home “organized” the same as keeping it clean? Or is it more like, “a place for everything, and everything in its place?”
A new poll looked at the most organized rooms in the average home. Is #1 on the list the tidiest spot in YOUR place? Here are the top five . . .
1. The living room. 45% of Americans claim their living room is “very” organized. Only 4% said it’s a total disaster.
2. The main bathroom, 44%
3. The kitchen, 42%
4. The dining room, 37%
5. Your bedroom, 33%
Now the other end of the list: Can you guess what the LEAST organized spot in the average home is?
1. The garage. 12% said their “garage or shed” is a total mess.
2. Closets, 9%
3. The basement, 8%
4. Other bedrooms, also 8%. That would include your KID’S bedroom.
5. Your home office. 6% said it’s a disaster. Lots of clutter on that desk.
The poll also found, and this is shocking, WOMEN do most of the organizing in the average household.
74% of women said they’re mostly the one who handles it. 42% of men, (many of them liars), claimed THEY actually do.
And if you’re a guy looking for a fight, be sure to mention this last stat: Women were far more likely to say they actually ENJOY doing it. 23% of women “love” organizing their home, compared to just 16% of men.
Women were also twice as likely to say they “hate” it though. 4% of women, and just 2% of men.
