Answer 1

This question aims at examining your understanding about the social condition during 1950s in America. Levittown, NY is one of the best-known examples of the post-World War II, American suburbia. After the turmoil of WWII, people flocked away from the urban cities to settle in quiet, peripheral neighborhoods. There was a significant increase in birth rates: the generation known as 'baby boomers'. Homes were being rapidly built to accommodate this growing population and among these homes, grew a culture of middle-class conformity with people looking forward to a peaceful life after the war, which reflects the post-war prosperity leading to a culture of middle-class conformity. The other choices addressing extreme poverty, scarcity of building materials, and extreme wealth, seem to misrepresent the generally observed post-war conditions.
