The Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary defines Generation Z as “the generation of people born in the late 1990s and early 2000s.”
Is 2000 Gen Z or millennial?
As you may think, defining the two generations is based entirely on dates—in this case, years. A Millennial is anyone born between 1980 and 1995. In the U.S., there are roughly 80 million Millennials. A member of Gen Z is anyone born between 1996 and the early-mid 2000s (end date can vary depending on source).
Is 2000 a Gen Z?
While Statistics Canada states that generation Z starts with those who were born in 1993, it’s widely understood that they’re typically born between the mid-1990s to the mid-2000s.
Generation Z (people born from 2000 up to the present day) have been raised with screens. Gen Z-ers have been saturated with advertising, are the most tech savvy and are very much influenced by vloggers and internet celebs.
