Which generation includes individuals born between 1965 and 1976?

  1. Millennials

  2. Generation X

  3. Baby Boomers

  4. Generation Z

The correct answer is: Generation X

Individuals born between 1965 and 1976 are classified as Generation X, which is commonly recognized as the demographic cohort that follows the Baby Boomers and precedes the Millennials. This generation experienced significant cultural and societal changes, such as the rise of technology and shifts in family structures, which have shaped their perspectives and experiences. Generation X is known for its independent spirit, often being characterized by a sense of skepticism towards authority figures and institutions. They were also the first generation to grow up with computers and the internet, which has influenced their workplace adaptability and approach to communication. This generational context is important for planners and policy-makers, as understanding the characteristics and attitudes of Generation X can aid in addressing their needs and engaging them effectively in various community and policy initiatives.
