Baby Boom Generation

The Baby Boom Generation refers to people born between approximately 1946 and 1964, a period marked by a significant increase in birth rates following World War II. This demographic shift resulted from economic growth, improved healthcare, and societal optimism. As they grew up, they influenced culture, politics, and the economy—shaping everything from music and fashion to consumer habits and workplace dynamics. Now, many Baby Boomers are reaching retirement age, impacting social services and healthcare systems. Their experiences and values continue to influence modern society in various ways.
