No, a 44-year-old is not a Boomer.
Baby Boomers are defined as individuals born between 1946 and 1964. Therefore, someone who is 44 years old in 2024 would have been born around 1980, placing them firmly within the Millennial generation (born roughly between 1981 and 1996) or possibly at the very beginning of Generation Z (born roughly between 1997 and 2012).
Here's a quick breakdown of the generations:
Generation | Birth Years (Approximate) |
---|---|
Baby Boomers | 1946 - 1964 |
Generation X | 1965 - 1980 |
Millennials | 1981 - 1996 |
Generation Z | 1997 - 2012 |
Generation Alpha | 2013 - 2025 |
