The correct response is: The economy experienced modest growth for a few years.

In the years following World War II, Indiana, like much of the United States, experienced a period of economic adjustment. While there was growth overall, it was not as robust or sustained as in the following decades, particularly during the long economic expansion that began in the late 1940s and continued into the 1960s.
