Population growth caused by the year of birth led to the classification of population groups into several generations. Classification is important because in each generation there is based on population growth has different characteristics and traits in each generation. This research was conducted to try to group generations based on provinces in Indonesia based on the number of residents owned. When researchers analyzed the data obtained from population census data conducted by the central statistics agency (BPS). The method used in generation classification grouping uses the K-Means algorithm method based on 3 clusters. Based on the results of calculations carried out for 3 clusters obtained cluster 1 has 25 provinces, cluster 2 has 3 provinces and cluster 3 has 6 provinces. Based on the 2020 census that has been conducted, the current population is generation Z, generation and Pre Boomer generation is last in line so that from the available data can provide information about mapping in 34 provinces to be able to improve communication patterns between generations and fulfill public facilities that can be used every generation
