States like Florida will likely see a rise in population as more of the boomers move there in retirement, he added.
“Peek of Baby Boomers are 1957, 58, 59, 60 and 61. These Boomers are not in Florida yet because they are too young. Once they come, Florida will explode”. *

Don't forget, Gen-Xers are now starting to retire and they are a demographic about the same size as the Boomers...
From the Google Machine:
"In the United States, the Baby Boomer generation (born 1946-1964) currently has a population share of 19.67%, while Generation X (born 1965-1980) has 19.27%. While the Boomer generation peaked at 78.8 million in 1999, Statista. By 2028, Pew Research Center projects Gen X to surpass Boomers in population, with 63.9 million Gen Xers and 62.9 million Boomers."
