Where You Sit Inside Gen Z
Generation Z runs thirteen birth years, and the two ends had different childhoods — this places a birth year inside the band and says what that end experienced.
Generation Z spans thirteen birth years, so its oldest members were 23 when schools closed in 2020 and its youngest were 11 — a twelve-year spread inside a single label.

Is there a difference between older and younger Gen Z?
