Generation Z in Germany - statistics & facts
As the twentieth and twenty first centuries progressed, each new generation received their own name. The names are used to differentiate between groups, both in the media and research, and describe their experiences clearly. Enter Generation Z, or Gen Z, also referred to as zoomers. Some members are already grown up, not just graduating from university, but even entering the job market. Generational comparisons through surveys and statistics illustrate how humanity deals with the main developments and challenges of the last hundred plus years: technological advancement, medical innovations, conflict, financial hardships, demographic shifts, health awareness, social disparity, to name a few examples. While to some it may seem like only yesterday that zoomers started to appear, they are currently the fourth largest generation group in Germany. Zoomers are directly preceded by Generation Y or millennials.
