Depends on where you read:
Baby Boomers: Baby boomers were born between 1944 and 1964. They’re current between 55-75 years old (76 million in U.S.) Gen X: Gen X was born between 1965 - 1979 and are currently between 40-54 years old (82 million people in U.S.) Gen Y: Gen Y, or Millennials, were born between 1980 and 1994.May 16, 2018
The cut-off for Gen X seems to vary a lot. Some sources place the end at 1980, while other sources place the end as late as 1982. What I do know is that I really do not feel any different than I did when I was 20.
I’ve seen some demographers use 1960 as the cut off, with generations going 22 years.
I think for the most part they get “cuspy” a couple of years on either side.
Social sciences are not “strict.”
Interesting. Four of my (six) kids were born after 1994. I've assumed for years that they were Millenials because they were all born around the turning of the millenium (the year 2000).
So what is their generation's designation?
