1964 was part of the baby boom. Did you click on the original link? Also, generation Z start in 2005 not the 90s.

My brother, 5 years younger, got his first cell phone and social media in high school. It led to a totally different growing up experience than I had.
I have never heard of 81 as a millennial.
Millennials have been defined as 1981-1996 by the Pew Research Center, and that has been adopted by most major outlets since.

Gen Z is 1997-2012

1964 also, oldest of 5. all of us consider ourselves and relate most to Gen X. My kids are 1999 and 2001 and seem like Gen Z although they didn't get cell phones (slider types) until jr high and smart phones until in high school. They do not seem at all like millenials. I need to ask them what generation they think they are!

I remember going to the library to do book reports and history reports when I was a kid because I needed to use actual books and the Dewey Decimal System. But I also had AOL for all four years of high school (1996-2000).
It’s insane how much changed in about 10 years from 1989 to 1999. It was much more change than compared to the 2009 to 2019 period.
I agree with this. I was born in 1979 and I don't feel like I fit into either one.
