Start with current year by adding Reverse. Also Enumerable Range requires using System.Linq. 

Enumerable.Range(1950, DateTime.UtcNow.Year - 1949).Reverse().ToList();

        for (int i = 1950; i <= 2050; i++)
        {              

           Year_combo.Items.Add(i);
        }

I would write a loop that starts at 1950 and ends at the current year. For every iteration of this loop just add an entry to the combobox with the current loop counter as content.

Some pseudocode:

for (int i = 1950; i <= currentYear; i++) {
   ComboBoxItem item = new ComboBoxItem();
   item.Content = i;
   myCombobox.Items.Add(item);
}

How about something like this, assign it as DataSource 

Enumerable.Range(1950, DateTime.Today.Year).ToList();

something like:

for(int year = 1950; year<DateTime.UtcNow.Year; ++year)
{
// Add year as year to the combo box item source...
}
