Picture, if you will, the game board for “The Game of Life.”
At the very start of the game, players have the choice between college and career. This initial choice immediately sets them along different life paths, literally. Along the first ⅓ of the game board, players reach milestones like choosing a job, getting married, buying a house, and having kids, and the speed at which players meet them vary based on where they start, and a number of other unforeseen variables along the way (i.e. numbers they spin on the wheel, and what spaces they land on).
Millennials, roughly spanning the 18-34 age range, are currently playing this ⅓ of the game, and they are reaching milestones at drastically different rates. Because of this, Older (30-34), Middle (25-31) and Younger (18-24) Millennials differ in habits, opinions, and priorities.
For example, only 50% of Younger Millennials are employed, while 79% of Older Millennials are.
Possibly (though not conclusively) as a result, Younger Millennials are much more likely than Older Millennials to consider themselves night owls.
We found many more insights that show how Older, Middle, and Younger Millennials differ in life stages, habits, and opinions, which we’ve compiled into a brief report, “Millennial 411: How Millennial Habits Differ By Age.”
You can read that report below, in order to gain a deeper understanding of the oft-discussed Millennial generation, which may not be as simple to pin-down as we’d like to believe.
