I am finding ranches are selling very well for the boomer crowd and I think we will be seeing more demand for the ranch style . There are more people in this age bracket; thus, more potential buyers, so the demand should be increasing for the convenience of one floor living. Now, since I'm a baby boomer I will confess that I live in a ranch style home specifically for this reason.
The good news is there are plenty of home styles for anyone to choose from in this marketplace. As you saw from the stats above - there is about 8 months supply of homes on the market - so it's a great time to buy.
