When does middle age start? For older millennials, right now

The millennial generation is typically defined as being born between 1981 and 1996, and its oldest members are turning 40 this year. The Harris Poll survey broke them up between younger millennials (25 to 32 years old) and older ones (33 to 40 years old).

For the latter group, middle age has arrived or is just around the corner—and they know it. The majority of older millennials say 40 is when middle age begins, but they feel that that period of their life lasts only for a decade. The median age reported by older millennials as the end of middle age is 50 years old, which is shorter than what the general population thinks: 40 to 55.

Still, not all older millennials would even call themselves that. Asked which generation they best identified with, 13% said “younger millennials” while 22% said Generation X. Only 35% of older millennials identified as such, according to the poll.
