This graphic ranks European countries by the percentage share of those 25–29 years old living with their parents, as sourced from Eurostat (2023).
Importantly part of the metric tracked is “persons benefiting from or contributing to the household income.” This means that cases where adult children support aging parents are also factored into this dataset.

Idk if it's the best metric to use but here's a chart in the same order, showing GDP per capita.
https://m.stacker.news/41445 What's going on in Ireland btw? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_GDP_(nominal)_per_capita
I haven't done any research on this, but I know that Ireland has favorable laws for the financial industry, which contributes significantly to its GDP. The vaccine industry is also very strong, and the recent declines in GDP are mainly related to this. COVID gave a big boost to the Irish economy.
The Nordic countries kick them right out, huh.
I've read a bit about this topic and I know that in Nordic countries, there's a cultural expectation for young adults to move out of their parents' homes. In Mediterranean countries, the culture is more family-oriented and staying at home is more common. While there are some exceptions in the chart, overall, young adults tend to stay with their parents in poorer countries.
