Electric kick scooters and smartphones are particularly associated with Generation Z[1]
Generation Z (also known as Gen Z for short, or Zoomers) is the generation after Millennials and before Generation Alpha. Most sources define Zoomers as those born from 1997 to 2012.[2][3] In a 2022 report, the U.S. Census designates Generation Z as those born 1997 to 2013.[4] Most members of Generation Z have used digital technology since a young age and are well known with the Internet and social media. Most members of Generation Z are the children of Generation X.[5]
Other proposed names for the generation included iGeneration, Gen Tech, Gen Wii, Homeland Generation, Net Gen, Digital Natives, and Plurals.[6]
