While there are no exact dates to the Millenial Generation, I use 1977 as the start date for 2 reasons: 1. Studies that included those born beginning in 1977 prove that even they are liberal on social issues - sure, maybe not as much as the babies of the '80s, but even those born beginning in 1977 have long supported, say, gay rights, green technologies, and immigration rights. See, for example, "Generation We," by Eric Greenberg and Karl Weber (they say 1978 is the start date, but I use 1977 - not only because 1 year doesn't make much difference, but also because of reason #2 below). 2. An online chart proves that the "echo boom" period really started in 1977, when about 159,000 more babies were born than during the previous year.

Thoroughly enjoyed this article -
I could relate to every generation. I am a "Black Hawk" raising my three Millenials and feel good about their future. Thank you for this article, it was very enjoyable.
