What year did the baby boom start?

The baby boom in the United States began in 1946, following the end of World War II. This period saw a significant increase in birth rates as soldiers returned home and families reunited. The boom continued into the early 1960s, resulting in a substantial demographic shift in the population.


Which was not a result of the baby boom that followed ww2?

One result that was not directly associated with the post-World War II baby boom was a significant increase in urban crime rates. While the baby boom led to population growth, increased demand for housing, and shifts in consumer culture, urban crime rates were influenced more by factors such as economic conditions, social changes, and law enforcement practices rather than the sheer number of babies born during that period.


How did the baby boom happen?

During the Great Depression, the birthrate went down drastically b/c people could not afford to have babies. When WW2 began, it ended the depression and an economic boom began. As an effect, the birthrate shot up because people were prospering and could once again afford to have and take care of babies. The baby boom did not actually begin before the end of WW II. In the western world, the birth rate was in decline during the Great Depression and it remained quite low until the single men/women of the armed forces returned to civilian life and took spouses. The " Baby Boom " is generally regarded as the period from late 1946 to the early 60's -- a time of economic recovery that moved into unparalleled prosperity by the mid- '50s. That period coincided with the prime fertility years of those returning war veterans.
