How about 1999 or 1989?

  1999 for sure, especially if you don't get to choose where you're born across the world.

    Agreed if we're looking at the whole world, but I thought we were looking at the US specifically.

      The difference across a decade is somewhat negligible. But just in the last few years we've gotten gay marriage, marijuana is getting legalized, crime reform, HIV treatment is becoming widely available... Humans have a tendency to focus on the one or two things that might be worse for them, but over all life is better in almost every way you can think of. Every year is better than the last.
