post-millennial
Born this century
Post-millennial describes the generation born after the millennials—roughly from the late 1990s onward.
These are people who grew up with smartphones and social media as given features of life rather than innovations.
The term is sometimes used interchangeably with Generation Z: Post-millennial voters are reshaping political demographics.
