Find which generation you belong to
Generations group people born within a span of years who share formative cultural and historical experiences. This calculator tells you which generation you belong to from your birth year, covering the Silent Generation, Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials, Generation Z and Generation Alpha, and shows the year range for each. Someone born in 1995, for example, is a Millennial, while someone born in 2000 is Generation Z.
The year ranges used are the widely cited definitions, such as Millennials being born from 1981 to 1996.
Generations and culture
Generational labels are a popular shorthand in media, marketing and everyday conversation for talking about shared attitudes, technology and life experiences. Millennials grew up alongside the rise of the internet, Generation Z with smartphones and social media from childhood, and each generation is shaped by the events and technology of its youth. Knowing your generation is a bit of fun and a useful reference.
The boundaries between generations are approximate and defined slightly differently by different researchers, so people born near a cutoff may identify with either side. All calculation happens locally in your browser.
