Okay, so I know I am bad at math and all but can someone please explain to me how we will have more millennials in 2036 than we did in 2016 if no more millennials are being born?

Immigration.

    The Millennial generation continues to grow as young immigrants expand its ranks. Boomers – whose generation was defined by the boom in U.S. births following World War II – are aging and their numbers shrinking in size as the number of deaths among them exceeds the number of older immigrants arriving in the country.

Thanks! My brains are totally fried today and I knew there had to be something I wasn’t getting. This is why I don’t work with numbers.
