In 2024, Millennials were the largest generation group in the United States, making up about 21.81 percent of the population. However, Generation Z was not far behind, with Gen Z accounting for around 20.81 percent of the population in that year.

This map layer shows the prevalent generations that make up the population of the United States using multiple scales. As of 2018, the most predominant generations in the U.S. are Baby Boomers (born 1946-1964), Millennials (born 1981-1998), and Generation Z (born 1999-2016). Currently, Millennials are the most predominant population in the U.S.A generation represents a group of people who are born around the same time and experience world events and trends during the same stage of life through similar mediums (for example, online, television, print, or radio). Because of this, people born in the same generation are expected to have been exposed to similar values and developmental experiences, which may cause them to exhibit similar traits or behaviors over their lifetimes. Generations provide scientists and government officials the opportunity to measure public attitudes on important issues by people’s current position in life and document those differences across demographic groups and geographic regions. Generational cohorts also give researchers the ability to understand how different developmental experiences, such as technological, political, economic, and social changes, influence people’s opinions and personalities. Studying people in generational groups is significant because an individual’s age is a conventional predictor for understanding cultural and political gaps within the U.S. population.Though there is no exact equation to determine generational cutoff points, it is understood that we designate generational spans based on a 15- to 20-year gap. The only generational period officially designated by the U.S. Census Bureau is based on the surge of births after World War II in 1946 and a significant decline in birth rates after 1964 (Baby Boomers). From that point, generational gaps have been determined by significant political, economic, and social changes that define one’s formative years (for example, Generation Z is considered to be marked by children who were directly affected by the al Qaeda attacks of September 11, 2001).In this map layer, we visualize six active generations in the U.S., each marked by significant changes in American history:The Greatest Generation (born 1901-1924): Tom Brokaw’s 1998 book, The Greatest Generation, coined the term ‘the Greatest Generation” to describe Americans who lived through the Great Depression and later fought in WWII. This generation had significant job and education opportunities as the war ended and the postwar economic booms impacted America.The Silent Generation (born 1925-1945): The title “Silent Generation” originated from a 1951 essay published in Time magazine that proposed the idea that people born during this period were more cautious than their parents. Conflict from the Cold War and the potential for nuclear war led to widespread levels of discomfort and uncertainty throughout the generation.Baby Boomers (born 1946-1964): Baby Boomers were named after a significant increase in births after World War II. During this 20-year span, life was dramatically different for those born at the beginning of the generation than those born at the tail end of the generation. The first 10 years of Baby Boomers (Baby Boomers I) grew up in an era defined by the civil rights movement and the Vietnam War, in which a lot of this generation either fought in or protested against the war. Baby Boomers I tended to have great economic opportunities and were optimistic about the future of America. In contrast, the last 10 years of Baby Boomers (Baby Boomers II) had fewer job opportunities and available housing than their Boomer I counterparts. The effects of the Vietnam War and the Watergate scandal led a lot of second-wave boomers to lose trust in the American government. Generation X (born 1965-1980): The label “Generation X” comes from Douglas Coupland’s 1991 book, Generation X: Tales for An Accelerated Culture. This generation was notoriously exposed to more hands-off parenting, out-of-home childcare, and higher rates of divorce than other generations. As a result, many Gen X parents today are concerned about avoiding broken homes with their own kids.Millennials (born 1981-1998): During the adolescence of Millennials, America underwent a technological revolution with the emergence of the internet. Because of this, Millennials are generally characterized by older generations to be technologically savvy.Generation Z (born 1999-2016): Generation Z or “Zoomers” represent a generation raised on the internet and social media. Gen Z makes up the most ethnically diverse and largest generation in American history. Like Millennials, Gen Z is recognized by older generations to be very familiar with and/or addicted to technology.Questions to ask when you look at this mapDo you notice any trends with the predominant generations located in big cities?

Born between 1981 and 1996, Millennials recently surpassed Baby Boomers as the biggest group, and they will continue to be a major part of the population for many years. The rise of Generation Alpha Generation Alpha is the most recent to have been named, and many group members will not be able to remember a time before smartphones and social media. As of 2024, the oldest Generation Alpha members were still only aging into adolescents. However, the group already makes up around ***** percent of the U.S. population, and they are said to be the most racially and ethnically diverse of all the generation groups. Boomers vs. Millennials The number of Baby Boomers, whose generation was defined by the boom in births following the Second World War, has fallen by around ***** million since 2010.

The Zoroastrian community today faces many challenges, some of which are deep-rooted and complex with no easy fix or resolution. It was proposed by members of the community that an independent research project should be conducted to help understand the community as it exists today. Gen Z and Beyond: A Survey for Every Generation was a completely anonymous survey for Iranian / Parsi / Irani Zoroastrians. It was conducted by researchers at the SOAS Shapoorji Pallonji Institute of Zoroastrian Studies (SSPIZS). SOAS was chosen as a neutral platform for research, so that the researchers would not support any particular outcome from the survey. The project was approved by the SOAS Research Ethics Panel. There has been no other survey of this nature undertaken on the global Zoroastrian community. The survey questionnaire was wide-ranging and included questions about domestic and family life, professional aspirations, religious observances and beliefs, philanthropy, entrepreneurship, immigration, community engagement and other issues of importance and relevance to the (Iranian / Parsi / Irani) Zoroastrian community. The purpose of conducting the survey was to produce a report and dataset that could be of use to community leaders and researchers in the present and future.

This 2023 survey, conducted in Switzerland, showed that overall, Generation Z plans to change employers more quickly than millennials. Around 44 percent of Generation Z respondents stated that they wanted to stay with their current employer for less than two years. Among millennials, more than a third wanted to stay with their current employer for longer than five years.

In 2021, messaging and video sharing platform Snapchat was more popular than TikTok among Gen Z users in the United States. TikTok counted around 37 million users who were born between 1997 and 2012, while Instagram reported around 33 million users in the same period. Snapchat, which counted 42 million Gen Z users, is projected to reach 49.5 million users in the examined demographic by 2025. Overall, platforms such as Pinterest, Twitter and Reddit had significantly less users amongst this age group.

The Gen Z Mental Health Market report segments the industry into By Age (12-16 Years, 17-21 Years, 22-27 Years), By Gender (Male, Female), By Disease (Anxiety, Depression, Substance Use Disorders, Eating Disorders, Other Diseases (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Post-traumatic Stress Disorder, etc.)), and Geography (North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, South America).

WhatsApp was the most popular social media platform for Gen Z, or 15-to-19-year-olds, in the Netherlands in 2020, with nearly all respondents using the service. This according to domestic survey information. The messenger service already ranked as the Netherlands' overall most popular social medium in terms of users. YouTube, Instagram and Snapchat were also very popular, all reaching a penetration rate of over 70 percent. Karaoke app TikTok, on the other hand, was much less popular, as only 17 percent of them used the video application.

Why is TikTok low in this ranking?

Chinese video and sing-along application TikTok, formerly Musical.ly, made a global name as being one of the most popular smartphone apps for Generation Z. Here, it seemingly ranks low as the source used ages 15 and up. This age group might potentially fall outside TikTok’s user base. While there is no data for the Netherlands that investigates the age groups below 15, download numbers suggest the app grew in popularity in the Netherlands after Bytedance (TikTok’s owner) merged Musical.ly and TikTok in August 2018.

A clash of generations
Perhaps unsurprisingly, Gen Z uses Instagram and Snapchat much more often than their Millennial counterparts (defined by the source as 20-to 39-year olds). Interestingly, Pinterest was also more popular among the younger generation. The picture gallery app does not rank among the most popular apps in the Netherlands, reaching less than five million people in 2019. Facebook, on the other hand, was more preferred by Millennials than it was by Generation Z.

According to a survey conducted in 2024, 65 percent of Generation Z children and adolescents said that they worried about what the world will be like when they are adults in the United States. Gen Z respondents aged 16 to 18 years old were most likely to share this belief, at 76 percent, followed by multiracial members of Gen Z youth and female Gen Z youth.

The Gen Z mental health market, encompassing individuals aged 12-27, is experiencing substantial growth, projected to reach $30.89 billion in 2025 and exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.25% from 2025 to 2033. This expansion is driven by several key factors. Increased awareness of mental health issues among Gen Z, coupled with the rising prevalence of anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders within this demographic, fuels demand for accessible and effective solutions. Technological advancements, including the proliferation of telehealth platforms and mobile mental health apps, are significantly enhancing accessibility and convenience, lowering barriers to entry for seeking help. Furthermore, the evolving stigma surrounding mental health, particularly within younger generations, is fostering a more open and accepting environment conducive to seeking professional support. The market segmentation reveals a diverse landscape, with varying needs across age groups (12-16, 17-21, 22-27 years), genders, and specific mental health conditions (anxiety, depression, substance use disorders, eating disorders). This diversity necessitates tailored solutions and targeted marketing strategies to maximize reach and impact. This burgeoning market is characterized by a competitive landscape featuring established players like Headspace, Talkspace, and BetterHelp, alongside innovative startups offering specialized services. North America currently dominates the market share, largely due to high awareness, advanced healthcare infrastructure, and robust digital penetration. However, other regions, particularly Asia-Pacific and Europe, are exhibiting promising growth potential driven by increasing disposable incomes, improved internet connectivity, and growing government initiatives supporting mental health services. The market's trajectory is heavily influenced by factors like technological innovation (AI-powered mental health tools, virtual reality therapy), evolving regulatory frameworks governing telehealth, and ongoing efforts to destigmatize mental health conversations. The continued expansion of the market hinges on sustained investment in research and development, improving access to affordable and culturally sensitive care, and fostering collaborative partnerships between stakeholders across the healthcare ecosystem.

In 2023, there were approximately 14.69 million millennials in the United Kingdom, making it the largest generational cohort at that time. Millennials surpassed the Baby Boomer generation as the largest generation for the first time in 2019. The two youngest generations, Gen Z and Gen Alpha, numbered approximately 13.2 million, and 8.3 million respectively. Gen X are, as of the most recent year, the second-largest generation in the UK at 14.04 million people, with their parent's generation, the Silent Generation, numbering around 4.3 million people in the same year. There were estimated to be 85,920 people who belonged to the Greatest Generation, the parents of the Baby Boomer generation, who lived through major events such as the Great Depression and World War Two. Post-War Baby Boom The baby boomer generation was the largest generation for much of this period due to the spike in births that happened after the Second World War. In 1947 for example, there were over one million live births in the United Kingdom, compared with just 657,038 live births just thirty years later in 1977. Members of this generation are typically the parents of millennials, and were the driving force behind the countercultural movement of the 1960s, due to their large numbers relative to older generations at the time. The next generational cohort after Boomers are Generation X, born between 1965 and 1980. This generation had fewer members than the Boomer generation for most of its existence, and only became larger than it in 2021. Millennials and Gen Z As of 2022, the most common single year of age in the United Kingdom in 2020 was 34, with approximately 944,491 people this age. Furthermore, people aged between 30 and 34 were the most numerous age group in this year, at approximately 4.67 million people. As of 2022, people in this age group were Millennials, the large generation who came of age in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Many members of this generation entered the workforce following the 2008 financial crash, and suffered through high levels of unemployment during the early 2010s. The generation that followed Millennials, Generation Z, have also experienced tough socio-economic conditions recently, with key formative years dominated by the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, and an increasingly unstable geopolitical situation.

The statistic shows the number of people in the U.S. in 2011 and 2030, by generation. By 2030, the Millennial generation will have 78 million people whereas the Boomer generation will only have 56 million people in the United States.
