Echo Boom is an expansive term for American children born between 1982 and 1995, when for the first time since 1964, the number of live births reached over four million.[citation needed] It wouldn’t be until 1985 that the live birth number would even match that of 1965 at 3.760 million. Also it should be noted that the birthrate of 1971’s 17.2% has yet to be reached according to the 2000 census.[1]
