## People born in 2012 belong to the generation after Millennials, which Pew Research Center starts in 1997.

Pew's article calls it Generation Z and gives no last birth year for it. 2012 is the 16th birth year counting 1997 as the first. The range comes from [Pew Research Center](https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2019/01/17/where-millennials-end-and-generation-z-begins/).

_Figure: The birth years 1930 to 2025 in five bands: before 1946, Baby Boomers 1946 to 1964, Generation X 1965 to 1980, Millennials 1981 to 1996, and Generation Z from 1997. 2012 is marked in the Gen Z band._

## Here are the years in which someone born in 2012 reaches each milestone age.

A birthday in 2012 plus the age gives the year, and the birthday itself decides whether it is the earlier or the later of two years where the table shows both.

## Here are four questions about being born in 2012, answered.

How old am I if I was born in 2012?

In 2026 you are 14 if your birthday has already passed this year and 13 if it has not. Today is Monday, October 26, 2026, counted in US Eastern time, so a birthday on or before October 26 has passed (you are 14) and one from October 27 on is still to come (you are 13).

How old will I be on December 31, 2026 if I was born in 2012?

You will be 14. Every birthday of 2026 has happened by December 31, so everyone born in 2012 is 14 on the last day of 2026, and 15 on December 31, 2027.

What year was I born if I am 14 in 2026?

You were born in 2012 if your birthday has already passed this year, or in 2011 if it has not come round yet. 2026 minus 2012 is 14, and someone born in 2011 is still 14 until their birthday this year.

In what year does someone born in 2012 turn 18?

2030, on the birthday in that year. Someone born in 2012 turns 21 in 2033 and 30 in 2042.

## Turnover is cheaper to prevent than to calculate.
