Younger Americans in their 30s are now the group most likely to doubt they will be financially secure after retirement, a shift from three years ago when baby boomers nearing retirement age expressed the greatest worry.
The survey findings by the Pew Research Center reflect the impact of a weak economic recovery that has shown stock market gains while housing values remain decimated.
As a whole, retirement worries rose across all age groups. Roughly 38% of adults say they are "not too" or "not at all" confident that they will have enough for retirement, up from 25% in 2009.
Pew found that retirement worries peaked among adults in their late 30s. Three years ago, it was boomers ages 51 to 55 who had the most anxiety. (AP)
