Which decade has the most consistent culture from the start to finish?
I would say either the 2000s or 2010s.

I dunno what "consistency" exactly entails, but if you mean the same culture throughout then the answer is: none of them. 10 years is a decent amount of time where a lot can change in-between.

The 1980s and the 2010s.
While there were differences between the early '10s and the late '10s, it was more or less a similar culture all the way through.

The 2010s, although I think a case could be made for all of those decades bar the 1970s.

Probably the 2010s. The 1980s were cultural consistent (especially the mid - late 80s) but, they definitely were not technologically consistent. Technology had quite a big jump between 1980 and 1990.

Music and culture also did a big jump in the 1980s. I shall remember that we went from disco and soft rock in 1980 to house, hip hop and new jack swing in 1989. I really don't understand people calling the 1980s a consistent decade. The early 80s and late 80s are probably even more divided than the early 90s and the late 90s.

I really don't understand people calling the 1980s a consistent decade. The early 80s and late 80s are probably even more divided than the early 90s and the late 90s. Very good points actually. I just went back and did a bit of research myself on the pop culture and you're definitely right. It seems that the early 1980s were dominated by the boomers meanwhile, the late 80s were without a doubt dominated by generation X (1990s culture was already emerging as early as then). I guess the reason why people say it was consistent was because there was this consistent "80s sound" that lingered around for the whole decade. In the late 80s, we also saw the early rise of Hip Hop culture, which drastically changed pop culture and still dominates it today. Even the way that the youth spoke in the early and late 80s was different. Come to think of it, the 80s weren't culturally consistent at all.

The 2010s ,the technological leap between 2010 and 2019 is not as big as the leap between 2000 and 2009 and especially the leap between 1990 and 1999.

It’s between the 80s and the 10s but I went with the 10s because I feel like technology changed a lot more in the 80s

Repping the dark horse vote with the 1970s. The seeds for disco and the culture that surrounded it were sown as early as 1969, and while disco didn't become popular until 1977, disco and hippies pretty much typify the length of the decade. The only real change throughout the decade was the death of New Hollywood and the birth of the blockbuster era through George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, and even these were remarkably consistent, with New Hollywood films lasting all the way up to 1980.

disco didn't become popular until 1977. What? The Philadelphia soul sound that would develop into disco was already hitting it big on the charts in 1974: By 1975 disco had already fully invaded the pop charts, and by 1976 it was already so ubiquitous that you got your parody songs bashing on its popularity in the infamous "Disco Duck". Otherwise, yeah, I agree, the 1970s are easily the most consistent decade out of the bunch. 1970-1979 are nowhere near impressive a leap like 1960-1969 or 1980-1989.

Admittedly, the very suburban white-centric view of the history of disco, which again admittedly is the only viewpoint of disco's history that I know, was that Saturday Night Fever is what set the fire for mainstream America in terms of disco. Once John Travolta was seen dancing in the discotheque in New York, so was the high school girl in Bloomfield, Michigan.
