Samantha said the biggest thing to learn from her explainer is that “peak millennials” make up the largest group of people born in a given few years in America’s population. “Society as a whole can benefit from learning this information. I think it’s useful for people to learn the demographics and societal shifts that occur within each generation — this teaches us about ourselves and the world we live in. Learning more about this specific generation can help us understand how the world will continue to evolve as the peak millennials age and move on through the world,” she explained.

“I was fascinated by the New York Times article because it deconstructed some of the most important life milestones for people in their early-to-mid thirties. Most importantly, it offered some data and explanation for why this specific micro-generation was experiencing hardships that other micro-generations may not have faced,” she added.
