The correct answer is the development of levittowns.

After World War II, the American economy was extremely propserous. The GI Bill helped millions of veterans attend college and obtain professional, well paying jobs. Along with this, men many came home after World War II to marry their girlfriend/fiance after the war.

This spike in marriages lead to a demand for family housing. This resulted in the development of Levittowns. Levittowns are suburbs where the houses look almost identical and are mass produced. These relatively affordable houses allowed for the average family to purchase a home where they can raise a family. This helped lead to the baby boom generation.

the vast majority of ballots have been counted nearly two weeks after one of the biggest political upsets in modern u.s. history catapulted donald trump to the presidency.

estimates show more than 58 percent of eligible voters went to the polls during the 2016 election, nearly breaking even with the turnout rate set during the last presidential election in 2012, even as the final tallies in states like california continue to be calculated, according to statistics collected by the u.s. elections project.

but among those figures were stark contrasts in key states that swing the election to trump — in ohio, wisconsin, iowa, michigan and elsewhere — indicating the president-elect’s leap from long-shot candidate to the most powerful political position in the world may have happened in part because of apathy toward hillary clinton’s candidacy, especially among the democratic base, several political scientists and organizations monitoring voter turnout told the pbs newshour.

while clinton is leading the popular vote by more than 1.5 million over trump as of sunday, she trails president obama’s 2012 totals by more than 2 million ballots — a chasm that may have cost her the election, said david becker, co-founder of the center for election and innovation and research.

“several million voters didn’t come out to vote,” becker said. “which is telling me that this idea of the trump wave, a huge number of voters shifting over to trump, is certainly not the story.”
