Generation Z

Generation Z, also known as Gen Z for short, or Zoomers, is the generation after Millennials and before Generation Alpha. Generation Z are broadly defined as those born from 1995 at earliest to 2013 at latest, but are typically defined as those born from 1997 to 2012.

Definition
The Library of Congress and Statistics Canada define Generation Z as those born from 1997 to 2012, both citing Pew Research Center. In a 2022 report, the U.S. Census designates Generation Z as those born 1997 to 2013. Australia's McCrindle Research uses 1995 to 2009 to define Gen Z. Most members of Generation Z have used digital technology since childhood and are well known with the internet and social media. Generation Z are often the children of Generation X, and it is predicted that many will be the parents of Generation Beta. 

Alternative names
Other proposed names for Generation Z include iGeneration, Gen Tech, Homeland Generation, Net Gen, Digitial Natives, and Plurals.
