Overview

Data Source: Google Analytics 4 (with Google Signals activated)
Type: Text (Age Brackets)
Age in Google Analytics segments users into predefined age brackets, such as ’18-24′, ’25-34′, ’35-44′, ’45-54′, ’55-64′, and ’65+’. This demographic information helps in understanding the age distribution of your audience and tailoring content, marketing strategies, and products to suit different age groups.

18-24: Young adults, often college students or early career individuals.
25-34: Adults in their late twenties to early thirties, frequently experiencing significant life milestones like career advancement, marriage, or starting a family.
35-44: Individuals in their mid-thirties to early forties, often in stable career paths and with growing families.
45-54: Middle-aged adults, possibly experiencing peak career roles and preparing for long-term financial goals.
55-64: Pre-retirement age individuals, often focusing on retirement planning and enjoying mature adulthood.
65+: Seniors, who may be retired and have interests aligned with leisure and lifestyle activities in their golden years.

The “unknown” dimension value is utilized when Google Analytics lacks sufficient information to determine a user’s age, which might be due to data privacy measures or limited user data.
Age data becomes available in Google Analytics when Google Signals is enabled, subject to certain data thresholds to ensure privacy compliance.
