    What Generation Am I
    Year of birth

    What generation am I if I was born in 2010?

    Answer

    If you were born in , your generation is:
    Generation Z

    Pew Research Center starts Generation Z with births in 1997 and uses 2012 as its end in research, though it has not officially set where the generation ends. McCrindle Research, which named Generation Alpha, starts it in 2010, so by McCrindle's definition 2010 is an early Generation Alpha year; this chart follows 2012, the cut-off Pew Research Center uses, so here it is still Gen Z.
