My reason for the interest is that I feel like it’s more likely that I would have more similar interests with those more in my generation than my parents generation. Things like music, growing up in the same decade say and watching the same silly tv shows. Therefore it’s one of the many things I will consider when thinking of pros and cons on where to live. I hope that doesn’t offend anyone, it’s not meant to. I’m not always politically correct like some. I enjoy persons of all types just thinking of things to consider. Thanks

You're welcome...we learn by asking questions!

I agree. That is why I asked my question.

Nothing. Why would you think I'd need to "do" anything with it? I'm a proponent of education for its own sake. I like learning new things. Having spent most of my adult life in sales, in one aspect or another, I have acquired a general interest in demographics. It's an interest, much like golf is an interest to some people, and Classic Greek Literature is an interest to others.

An era when fine arts was valued in public education, and there were lessons and class courses dedicated to the study, and were required, folks are more likely to grow up with at least a basic understanding of them - even if they have no personal interest in them. I've had customers who have never heard of Escher. Not a "fine" artist but still - there is a break in the knowledge base. I only vaguely know the name Notorious Big, and there are folks who would say I'm over the hill because I wouldn't be able to name a single thing he performed and wouldn't know it was him if I heard it. A lot of folks in their 80's and 90's would consider Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Yes, ELP, Jethro Tull, to be "that horrible rock noise" (my concert pianist father included). But that was the music of my era so you're more likely to find a larger demographic of folks my age who consider this kind of music to be our link to our own memories. Just like swing, big band, Sinatra, and even 50's music would be a lifeline to another era's memories. Clothing styles - what is considered "classic" or "vintage" is reflected by the era in which someone grew up. If you doubt that, think back. What was considered a "classic" formal gown style for women in the 1990's? 1940's? What about in the 1890's? How about the 1830's? Or even the mid-1700's? The era in which you grew up can shape your perception of current events as well. It shapes how you view the world. Do you need to "do" anything about the knowledge of these things? Not at all. But it's interesting to know, nonetheless. |

WOW! What is the source of this data? I'm wondering who can correlate my age with my CDD.

This is an interesting question which I don’t take offense with at all.
My personal opinion is that the differences in our age matter much less as we get older.

On the historic side the average age is getting younger year by year. At this pace it is projected by 2022 we will no longer be an adult community.
