The popular names category makes me feel really old. I know someone with each of the 1913 names and no one by the 2013 names

It was hard for me to get past the average income! I don’t know how it has gone up so much in the last 100 years and we still struggle so! I really did enjoy this infographic…we have come an amazing way in a century! Makes me very happy for my son to live in this age!

Well, times have changed but I still love “When Irish Eyes Are Smiling!”

There is a lot of interesting info here – such as the raise in income and the gigantic raise in education. I thought that the number of people(generations) per household was on the rise again, but maybe they mean how many people in one family.

I love seeing Infographics they always have such interesting information. Wow how times have changed, funny though one thing that stood out to me is that the unemployment rate hasn’t changed too much.

What a fun and interesting look at our culture! And what about GE being one of the most powerful companies then AND now?! Thanks for sharing this infographic.

That is interesting. You can thank Margaret Sanger for the low percentage of African Americans in the US, she was a eugenicist, NOT a feminist.
