💨 Abstract

After 36 seasons, The Simpsons' portrayal of a typical American family, with a father providing for a family of five comfortably, has become implausible, according to a new study. The study, based on US census data, notes that average household sizes have declined over the years and people are choosing to have smaller families. The Simpsons' premise may have originated from creator Matt Groening's experiences growing up watching traditional sitcoms.
