For a comprehensive look at student loan debt, Pew has a large, new study based on a special tabulation of the 2010 Survey of Consumer Finances. In a nutshell, 19 percent of households had outstanding student loans in 2010, including 40 percent of households headed by people under age 35. Among those with student loans, the average outstanding balance was $26,682.
