mid 50's vs mid 50s

Both "mid 50's" and "mid 50s" are commonly used to refer to the middle of the decade when someone is in their fifties. The difference lies in the punctuation, with the former using an apostrophe and the latter not. Both forms are acceptable, but the version without the apostrophe, "mid 50s," is more commonly used in informal contexts.
