I'm only nominally a grown-up, but I've lived in the US my entire life and I don't think I write a check more than once a year. Most stuff I buy is done with credit cards (which I generally pay with their respective mobile apps with bank transfers), my mortgage is automatically withdrawn from my checking account, and I use CashApp or Paypal to send money to people directly.

I think the last time I actually wrote a physical check was when I refinanced my house in 2021.
