Birthday numbers › Generation
What generation am I?
Boomer, Gen X, Millennial, Gen Z or Gen Alpha, by birth year.
Generation birth years
| Generation | Born |
|---|---|
| Silent Generation | 1928 – 1945 |
| Baby Boomers | 1946 – 1964 |
| Generation X | 1965 – 1980 |
| Millennials | 1981 – 1996 |
| Generation Z | 1997 – 2012 |
| Generation Alpha | 2013 onward |
These ranges follow those used by the Pew Research Center for Silent through Gen Z. Gen Alpha is a common label without an official end year. Other sources draw the lines a year or two differently, so if you were born on a boundary, you may see yourself described both ways.
