what generation am i

To tell you what generation you’re in , I need your birth year. Generational labels are usually based on birth-year ranges, and those ranges can vary a bit by source, so the exact year matters.

Quick guide

• Gen Z: about 1997–2012

• Millennials: about 1981–1996

• Gen X: about 1965–1980

• Baby Boomers: about 1946–1964

What to send

Reply with your birth year and I’ll tell you your generation. If you want, I can also give you:

• your generation,
• a one-line description of it,
• and the age range for 2026.
