30s

Between twenty-nine, forty

The 30s refers to the decade from 1930 to 1939, or to an age range from 30 to 39: She's in her 30s.

The 1930s evokes the Great Depression, swing music, and the lead-up to World War II.

When describing age, the 30s mark early middle adulthood—past youth but before middle age proper.

Also written thirties.
