Why are new projects in VS2015 targeting .NET 4.5.2 instead of 4.6.1?

I just created a new console project in Visual Studio 2015 and noticed the project is targeting .NET Framework 4.5.2 instead of the newer 4.6.1, why is this?

The "New Project" screen allows you to pick the target framework. It may not be as obvious:

If the expected framework is not there, download the targetting pack from the <More Frameworks...> link
