There is also "matures" (before Boomer) and before that The Great Generation.  On the other end, there is Gen Z (I believe they are 15 and less...so not really buying houses yet LOL.  Millenials span a much wider ranger (generally 20 yrs), followed by boomers (15 yrs).  Gen X is more "compact" generally spanning 10 yrs.

You should find this article helpful.

That being said, "targeting by generation" is not that helpful.  Targeting by needs, behavior, attitudes, etc is much more useful for marketers.

Oh, and I'm Gen X.

There is a lot of hype on this generational stuff. It really makes no sense.

Ginger - Depending on where you get your info, I am either a very late baby boomer, or an X generation. I was born in 1965, and maybe that is why I am so confused.

The silent generation.  They came before the baby boomers.  They fought the world wars.
