What differences are associated with being married?
Health Education Health 100 Version 3 / Marrieds and Non-Marrieds
"The text associates marriage with better mental and physical health, longer life, more health insurance coverage, lower cardiovascular disease prevalence, and improved outcomes for children. Married people may also accumulate more wealth, have higher income and assets, receive more legal and military benefits, and experience more social support. These are reported group differences rather than outcomes guaranteed to every married person."
