The year 2007 falls within the Generation Z cohort. Generation Z is generally defined as those born from the mid-to-late 1990s up to the early 2010s, with many sources specifying a range approximately from 1995 or 1997 through 2010 to 2012
. Specifically, 2007 is well within this range. Generation Alpha, the generation following Gen Z, includes those born from 2010 to 2024
. Therefore, someone born in 2007 would not be considered Generation Alpha but rather part of Generation Z. In summary:
- Generation Z birth years: roughly 1995/1997 to 2010/2012
- Generation Alpha birth years: 2010 to 2024
- 2007 birth year = Generation Z
