Generation X

the long version

The new fourth edition of Generation X: Americans Born 1965 to 1976 brings you a detailed demographic and socioeconomic portrait of an age group that is marrying, setting up new households, and having children. Though small, Generation X has a powerful presence in the marketplace. Generation X's nine chapters bring you the facts about their Education, Health, Housing (a new chapter), Labor Force, Living Arrangements, Population, Spending, and Wealth. While the federal government has produced most of the data in Generation X, each table was individually created by the author and calculations were added to reveal trends and highlight important information.
