In case you haven't seen these, we posted new profile sheets that use the 2006-2008
ACS and the 2011-2013 ACS Public Use Microdata Sample.
In these profiles, Baby Boomers are defined as those born between 1946 and 1964, and
Millennials are defined as those born between 1983 and 2000.
For the 2006-2008 ACS, many of the Millennials were not yet of working age.
The geography is limited only to those Counties for which PUMA geography has matching
boundaries.

I have seen some recent forecasts about declining gasoline prices, so we will see how this
impacts the mode to work and auto ownership for younger workers in the near future.
