Baby boomers are a designated group of people who were born between 1946 and 1964. They are labeled as 'baby boomers' because during this period of time, there was a statistically significant increase in the number of births that occurred. In 1946, the first year of the 'boom,' there were 3.4 million babies born in the U.S., a record number during a 1-year period.
Nearly a quarter of Americans were born between 1946 and 1964, the typical definition of the baby boom generation. Thatâs more than 75 million people. In their heyday, the boomers were an unprecedented economic force, pushing up rates of homeownership, consumer spending and, most important of all, employment.
