## People born in 1950 are Baby Boomers, whom the Census Bureau counts as born from 1946 to 1964.

1950 is the 5th of the 19 birth years in that span. The range comes from [U.S. Census Bureau](https://www.census.gov/newsroom/press-releases/2020/65-older-population-grows.html).

_Figure: The birth years 1930 to 2025 in five bands: before 1946, Baby Boomers 1946 to 1964, Generation X 1965 to 1980, Millennials 1981 to 1996, and Generation Z from 1997. 1950 is marked in the Boomers band._

## Here are the years in which someone born in 1950 reaches each milestone age.

A birthday in 1950 plus the age gives the year, and the birthday itself decides whether it is the earlier or the later of two years where the table shows both.

## Here are four questions about being born in 1950, answered.

How old am I if I was born in 1950?

In 2026 you are 76 if your birthday has already passed this year and 75 if it has not. Today is Monday, October 26, 2026, counted in US Eastern time, so a birthday on or before October 26 has passed (you are 76) and one from October 27 on is still to come (you are 75).

How old will I be on December 31, 2026 if I was born in 1950?

You will be 76. Every birthday of 2026 has happened by December 31, so everyone born in 1950 is 76 on the last day of 2026, and 77 on December 31, 2027.

What year was I born if I am 76 in 2026?

You were born in 1950 if your birthday has already passed this year, or in 1949 if it has not come round yet. 2026 minus 1950 is 76, and someone born in 1949 is still 76 until their birthday this year.

When can I get full Social Security retirement benefits if I was born in 1950?

The SSA table gives a full retirement age of 66 for people born in 1950, which you reach in 2016. The earliest age retirement benefits can start is 62, which you reach in 2012.
