I golf and interact with both sets of individuals but I notice so much of a difference. My question.....Am I the only one that sees this? I'm not condemning or praising either group, just seeing a significant difference.
I would say if you experienced college in the late 60's or early 70's you are not a younger villager. I graduated from college in the mid 80's and have people in my neighborhood that graduated in the early 90's. I would say they qualify as younger villagers. Of course there are differences in attitudes but it has nothing to do with age. Has everything to do with life experiences and culture and personal beliefs and on and on
