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.
