According to the U. S. Census Bureau, millennials are people born between 1982 and 2000. This means that the millennials' age range in 2022 is between 40 and 22 years old?
BUT
The Pew Research Center says millennials are born between 1981 and 1996. So anyone 41 and 26 years old.
BUT!!
George Masnick, a professor at Harvard University. He said in 2012 that millennials were people who were born between 1985 and 2004!
Okay.
So, this is all a bit confusing. I have seen 1981 to 1996 as the most popular choice. From what I have seen, Hollywood and big companies seem to go by this one from the Pew research as well. Gen z has constantly been depicted as 20 somethings of the 2020s, with the small left over of millennials in the aging late 20s corner of increasing irrelevancy. We are no longer hip or young according to marketing. Millennials could even be seen as boomers now. 30? may as well be 60! Get out of here you old irrelevant &*^$s. I digress.
But if it is 1982 to 2000 then that kind of flips the table, doesn't it? Millennials are back to being in their early to mid 20s again. I find that to be interesting.
I personally was born in December of 1994 and I have definitely found much more commonality with people in their mid 20s to early 20s. Sharing the same fond memories of cartoons, anime and video games. A handful of people I met in their 30s, none of them seem to know what Teen Titans or what Code name Kids next door is. Again, I kind of digress.
I want to clarify I am not using any information from Wikipedia because I do not deem it to be a good source of information.
I read an article on the confusing haziness of the millennial start and end dates from Millennials age range . com, who bring up Census and Pew reaserch and Masnick.
But what does ERA think. I will throw in a poll.
