Life in the 1950's was different compared to the 2000's. In the 1950's, people were beginning to overcome the terrible World War II that occured in the early 1940's. The fashion was fairly basic, but more evolved from the early 1900's, the music people listened to was very jazzy, the entertainment they enjoyed were things such as movies, going out places and balls with family and friends and also, whoever could afford it, watched TV as it had just come out.

The crime rate was nowhere near as high and people and children did not have the same security worries that we do now. Homes were rarely locked and there was no such thing as security systems and devices. Also, supermarkets and shopping malls/centers had not yet arrived and the corner shop was the place to do your shopping. Milk, bread, and some other products were delivered to your home sometimes still by horse and cart.
